Sales of electric vehicles (EVs) plunged across Europe last month, fuelled by a sharp drop-off in demand in Germany.
Official figures show that sales for new EVs fell by 30pc in Germany last month, which led to a broader fall of 12.5pc across the continent.
It comes a week after Brussels launched a crackdown on an influx of cheap electric vehicle imports from China, which they claim have benefited from unfair state subsidies.
