The north-east's regional development agency has already announced a network of 619 charging points in its region will be ready by the start of next year, and this is an initiative that is unlikely to be left to just one part of the country. Nissan is particularly pleased that the Government has offered a subsidy of up to £5,000 from 2011 on the purchase of zero-emission vehicles, including the Leaf.Comment

The motor industry as a whole in the UK is not that important, especially compared to the aerospace industry: Motor Industry - Commons Library Standard Note - UK Parliament
In 2012, the manufacture of motor vehicles contributed 10.4 billion to the UK economy,
around 1% of total output and 7% of manufacturing output.
The industry employed 129,000 people in Great Britain.
The number of vehicles produced in the UK fell rapidly during the recession, from 1.8 million
in 2007 to 1.1 million in 2009. Numbers have since had a partial recovery with 1.6 million
vehicles produced in 2013.
Most UK vehicle production is for export markets, with 77% of the passenger cars produced
in 2013 exported.“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment
