I feel it isn't fair because there is no clear alternative available, i.e. the electric truck.

Jeepers people.
Cappy is saying ICE restrictions, ie: you can't sell them period.

Anyway, pickup trucks being subject to the same Green Levy as other vehicles doesn't guarantee they would pay the tax in the first place.

The alternative is that manufacturers make their ICE pickup trucks more fuel efficient in the interim to avoid the tax. Manufacturers wouldn't even have to try very hard to get their vehicles below the threshold for the weighted fuel consumption average, Ford already did it with the F150 running the 5.0L V8.
