The New Order
Norway became the first country in the world where the sale of electric cars has overtaken sales of those powered by fossil fuels and hybrid engines, Reuters reported Tuesday.

Battery electric vehicles (BEV) comprised more than 50 percent of all new cars sold in the country in 2020, marking a global record and a substantial increase from a mere 1 percent of the overall market a decade ago.

German carmaker Volkswagen Audi took the lead last year as the top BEV producer, replacing US manufacturer Tesla.

The oil-producing nation is seeking to end the sale of petrol and diesel cars by 2025 and has exempted fully electric vehicles from taxes imposed on those relying on fossil fuels.

Analysts suggested that the sale of electric vehicles is expected to rise in 2021, but there are still questions as to how many vehicles producers will allocate to Norway as European demand is increasing.

This is why Norway can go all electric on cars:



As soon as you smart people invent a room temperature superconductor, The USA could do the same by having Canada and Niagara supply all of North America with juice.

Well they build on Silt and Clay foundations, even after warned not to. They aren't smart! We like smart people, dumb people are losers, most likely Liberal commie losers.
Where will they dispose of all of those used dead batteries?

Trick Question! Liberals don't have any forethought!

Recycling lithium-ion batteries will not be an issue, but finding enough generated electricity to power the electric cars will be. Coal, anyone?

Unsaid in the article is that Tesla slipped from the #1 sale spot.

Where did Norway get the bulk of its wealth for the past 40 years?

Amazing hypocrisy.


Still exports shitloads of oil/gas.

Perhaps Norway just wants to export more oil. I mean Europe is a huge importer of oil so why not? I do have to wonder about the range (or lack thereof) on electric cars in cold weather though.

Try to prioritize Ohomenomenmmnn, as you attempt to engage Patnet.
Regionally, this pales in comparison to neighboring Denmark's innovations. Recently introduced children's cartoon John Dillermand and his super long penis!

It has been extensively tested by many autmotive magazines. Look it up.

For those who are curious, Audi e-Tron took the Norwegian sales crown for 2020, but Tesla did have a good December. See Norway: Massive EV Sales Record In December, Tesla Model 3 Beats VW ID.3
