      But while the sales have gone up, they have actually lost market share in Norway now.

      Ethics of their CEO aside, they still offer an excellent product for a competitive price (and 0% financing doesn’t hurt either).

      I am not Norweigian, please help me understand.
      I used to think of the norweigian people as being concious and committed to greater causes, but they keep buying cars from a lunatic who insists on supporting the far right around the world.
      Norweigians have sympathy for the Nazi salute he made? Or is it some other reason to buy more of those cars?

    4. Up? It was still down by 32% in April, and has not had many top spots all year. As here the top sellers are those with new EVs. A new EV appears, they peak that month until a new EV comes and pushes the old one down to 5th. No new EVs from other brands that month usually makes Tesla go higher.

      Tho most pick Tesla in general due to how more effective they have been with charger coverage… Unlike the US. They even cover the mountain roads here. They did not buy it to feed Elons ego I suspect

      I’m sat at a train station waiting for a colleague and I’m surrounded by Teslas, I can see 7 and I haven’t left the car…

      It’s certainly Tesla country, think all you need to fit in is a pair of Hoka trainers, peak performance hoody and Tesla 😀
