Maybe he thinks that more of his constituents are pro breathing decent air than pro driving smoggy private vehicles. I'd like to think he's onto something.

Yeah most londoners don’t drive and air pollution affects everyone. I welcome the ULEZ expansion.
I do drive and I also welcome the ULEZ expansion.
The ULEZ is not a burden - it's the bare minimum. I don't even need to think about it because my car isn't >16 years old (and if it was, I would seize the opportunity to accept some of this grant money they're doling out to people with old cars who want to replace them with something newer and cleaner).
I looked up his London 2021 Manifesto in it he mentioned "I promise even more world- leading action on tackling air pollution. The central London ULEZ I introduced in 2019 in the face of Tory opposition has seen toxic emissions slashed by over 40%. But I want more Londoners to benefit from cleaner air, so I’ll expand the ULEZ in October 2021."
