Five Conservative-led councils - Bexley, Bromley, Harrow, Hillingdon and Surrey - have launched legal action over the scheme, planned to cover the whole of London from the end of August.
A judicial review into Sadiq Khan's plans to expand London's Ultra-Low Emission Zone is due to get under way at the High Court.
"You're not going to please 100% of people all the time," he added. "No politician in history has managed to do so." Speaking to BBC Radio 4's Today programme, Paul Osborn, the Conservative leader of Harrow Council, said the authority believed its expansion would have a "devastating impact on the poorest motorists in Harrow".
These are that its expansion is too big and that it should be treated as a new scheme; the consultation was flawed, according to the councils, it did not disclose important information. "It's such a shame to see these local authorities wasting time and taxpayers' money trying to prolong the negative impacts of air pollution and climate crisis," she said.
