uin	186307
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/06/2023 answer text <p>Increasing volumes of electric vehicles (EVs) are likely to have minimal impacts on roads in general, including on deterioration and longevity. Vehicles have been increasing in weight for many years, driven by consumer choice and improving safety and environmental performance technologies. While some EVs are heavier than their internal combustion engine (ICE) equivalents, there are many examples where EVs are lighter than the heaviest ICE vehicles currently on the market.</p><p> </p><p>Maximum axle weight or gross vehicle weight limits are in place to avoid excessive road wear and damage. Heavy commercial vehicles, rather than passenger vehicles, are the dominant factor determining road design and weight limits.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Hereford and South Herefordshire answering member printed Jesse Norman question first answered 05/06/2023 11:44:53 answering member 3991 label Biography information for Jesse Norman
