would be interesting to know if the Norwegian grid has had any problems so far dealing with increasing demand from electric cars

In how many years will the number of fuel stations 10 % of the current number?

VW Tesla and Toyota are top 3, but have all lost ground compared to 2023
Honda, Xpeng, BYD, MG have the highest growth rates

So depressing that the whole Western world could be at the same point on this trajectory, but no we have to cuddle up to big oil.

Paid for by the exports of Oil and Gas.

Dear god
The average number of kilometers per passenger car ranged from 13,329 kilometers to 12,846 kilometers.
In the best case scenario, and assuming that most of the electricity comes from renewable sources, you will need to cover a distance of about 31,000 kilometers. After covering it, an electric car becomes much cleaner than an internal combustion vehicle.
Good job idiots you doomed us all.

Boomers in many Western countries: *’Electric cars aren’t there yet, their range is poor, endurance drops in cold weather. How will I make my annual skiing trip from Hamburg to Austria?! I’ll see where they stand in 10 years.’*
Meanwhile in Norway, a frigging cold country with massive distances to cover …

What having oil and gas does to a country

I’m surprised that petrol has completely died off but diesel is still holding up. As the graph shows only passenger cars it can’t be explained by vans or pickup trucks which usually don’t have petrol options.

Now what the hell are they gonna do with all that oil? Sell it? Pfffft.

Isn’t buying an EV heavily subsidized in northern europe countries?
Also , IIRC, they are one of the largest exporters of oil (and petrol? ). So not that clean after all ^^

Electric cars aren’t going to solve much, most of the negative externalities that existed with fossil fuel cars are the same with electric vehicles. Their tires massively pollute, designing cities and population centres around cars spreads people out and creates worse urban centres.

Taxing ICE and subsidising EVs – wow what a developed country with the totalitarian green policies, ironically funded by the export of natural resources

Norway worked long term on this and in great lines has the infrastructure ready for this.
That’s cool. However we gotta understand that their population is very small and has majority of its earning through oil and gas sales. They have roughly 5 million cars registered, Germany has about 50 million, Poland around 35 million total. I admire Norway that they used their wealth so wisely. You can check what Russia achieved with their oil and gas. They still produce lame Ladas with 50 years old technology.

If anyone is interested, it’s 10,480 new electric cars.
So about 150x less cars than what was sold the same month in the US (ev+gas), out of which 1 million where suvs and light trucks.

I’d also buy an electric if I earned 5x more and government payed half of it.

26.1% of all cars on the road are fully electric in Norway

Norway worked long term on this and in great lines has the infrastructure ready for this.
At the same time, 18% of current EV owners in Norway [want to switch back to ICE](https://executivedigest.sapo.pt/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Mobility-Consumer-Pulse-2024_Overview.pdf) (slide 10).
