Read the original article on reuters.com (opens in a new tab)Reuters reports a Guardian story, citing government sources, that Britain is expected to cut its 2030 electric vehicle sales target from 80% to around 60%. It sets this against the Prime Minister's statement that no decision has been made and against the government's restated 2030 and 2035 commitments. Nothing in it misleads: the headline keeps the Guardian attribution, and the carmakers' complaints and sales figures are credited to them.
“Guardian says”
The headline keeps the attribution the body gives, so readers know the target cut is a newspaper report from government sources, not an announced decision.
“the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders said last week, urging "substantive" target changes”
The sales figure and the call to weaken the targets are credited to the carmakers' trade body by name, not stated in Reuters' own voice.
