If they do they won't ban them outright. They will just make it too expensive to own one through higher fuel costs, road user charges etc. That seems to be the common angle to force compliance. Then when you give up and by a petrol or god forbid an electric car it was your dicision and the government doesn't look as bad. ( same as the firearm legislation with 5yr licences)
