A fee purely on EVs, when it's far in excess of what a typical driver will pay in fuel taxes, is nothing more or less than a fossil fuel subsidy. It's going to discourage EV take up, and prolong ICE usage. The excess payments should be coming from the petrol and diesel burning vehicles, to discourage their use.
