No surprise - it was bound to happen. I wish they would rename it though - it's not about congestion.

The threshold for exemption from the London Congestion Charge is to be reduced from 100g/km to 75g/km.
From 1 July only cars and vans that emit less than 75g/km and are Euro 5-compliant, or those that are pure electric vehicles, will be exempt from the charge.
In a concession to motorists who have purchased a car on the basis of its charge exemption, however, Transport for London is to offer a ‘Sunset Period’ of three years.
