Yes. I can't see how they could do a hard ban for existing owners, it would be a real vote loser for whoever is brave dumb enough to do it.

Most likely it will be done covertly, probably through taxes, making fossil fuel cars unviable to own eventually. Its already started in the UK. £12.50 a day if want to drive within a ULEZ (Ultra Low Emission Zone), The ULEZ pretty much covers the CBD and surrounding inner suburbs.
