Improve the range of cars available on Motability Scheme
Expand the range of cars available on the Motability scheme, including bringing back Mercedes, BMW and other models previously removed such as Mercedes CLA and the Audi A3 Sportback. Offset additional costs with higher PIP advance payments if required.
Disabled people constitute the largest minority group in the world, yet are the most underserved and underrepresented. It's a surprisingly common misconception that disabled drivers shouldn't be afforded luxury cars, or access to such vehicles so that they can too enjoy a dream car. Deciding on a car should be an inclusive process. Vehicle adaptations shouldn't be confined to a limited choice further removing autonomy from individuals who already suffer from discrimination and lack of access.
