We will discuss DRIVE35, which will support the latest R&D in strategic vehicle technologies, accelerate their commercial scale-up, and unlock investment across all aspects of automotive electrification. As part of this ambitious programme, Government is committing £2 billion of automotive capital and R&D funding to 2030, plus an additional boost of £500 million to extend the R&D support under DRIVE35.
