From January 2011 to the end of June 2017 more than 100,000 purchasers of ultra low emission cars have received support from the plug-in car grant (currently up to £4,500) and more than 3,000 purchasers of ultra low emission vans have received up to £8,000 support from the plug-in van grant. Since its launch last year the plug-in motorcycle grant has also supported the purchase of a small number of zero emission motorcycles. In addition more than 37,000 installations of domestic chargepoints have been supported by the electric vehicle homecharge scheme since September 2014.
