I can't picture this being much of a big deal. Sounds like we'd be talking about going from £0 yearly to £165. Electric cars already cost well into the tens of thousands. Very few people are going to balk at paying that little tax for a car that cost them 500x that. And what's the alternative? You buy a petrol/diesel, you'd pay the same.
For reference, see the tax band tables below: https://www.gov.uk/vehicle-tax-rate-tables
