3 days agoNorway plans to scrap tax exemption for electric vehicles by 2027
"We had set the goal that all new passenger cars would be electric by 2025, and with a share of 95 percent electric vehicles this year, one can say that the goal is practically achieved," Finance Minister Jens Stoltenberg said in a statement. "That is why the time has come to phase out the incentives," he added. The government argues that zero-emission cars will remain comparatively financially attractive as it also plans to increase a one-time tax on purchases of fossil-fuel vehicles.
