Ocado , the AA and Openreach have called on Sadiq Khan to abandon plans to extend congestion charge to electric vans.
Drivers of electric vehicles will start having to pay the same 15 a day charge as those driving petrol and diesel vehicles in central London on Christmas Day 2025 .
This will hinder the already sluggish take-up of electric vans, businesses say.
Only 5.9% of new vans sold in 2023 were electric, and last week the car industry said it was also struggling to sell electric cars without government incentives.
