Norway's electrification of road transportation is unprecedented, with nearly 90% of vehicles sold last year being electric, marking a significant shift in automotive preferences.
Christina Bu notes that over three decades of public incentives have been critical to Norway's electric vehicle adoption. These include the removal of road tax and free access to tolls.
Obtaining an electric vehicle in Norway has been made financially appealing through the elimination of VAT on these cars, which can add 25% to conventional car prices.
Bu highlights the importance of disincentives for polluting vehicles, stating that buying a combustion engine is expensive, making electric cars the more economical choice.
