Stage 1 remapping in Hammersmith and Fulham
Inside Hammersmith and Fulham, as in every London borough, the Ultra Low Emission Zone can apply a daily charge to cars and vans. Plug-in cars already made up 10.1% of privately kept cars in the council area at the end of June 2026, the 4th highest share of the 104 largest towns we cover, though petrol, at 66%, is still the main fuel. For those petrol and diesel cars, Stage 1 remapping changes fuel, boost and timing settings within the engine's limits, giving more mid-range torque for pulling into faster traffic. It doesn't change the emissions standard, so a car's ULEZ position stays exactly as it was.
