Well, one thing to keep in mind is that most people haven't been buying cars.
My car is starting to get older, and my plan right now is to continue maintaining it because compared to the cost of replacing it the cost of keeping it is so much lower. And I'm not doing that bad. Most households are doing a lot worse than I am, and so they're probably looking at the astronomical prices of vehicles post covid and making the completely reasonable decision not to get anything.
So it's easy for 90% of the vehicles sold to be electric because most of the vehicles being sold are luxury items for the rich rather than things that individuals need to live day to day.
Norway got rich with petroleum products. Bunch of hypocrites.
nah a lot of their stuff get subsidised by the EU too from what I've heard, I think the flip side of it is that they have long training and internship periods so almost everyone is in their 30s by the time they get anywhere. The irony is worrying about global warming when you live in a frozen hell.
Wait so as an european living car free in a city I'm subsidizing the lifestyle of some rich fucks living in a fjord?
That's it, i'm doing tax evasion.
The only reason Norway can afford electric cars is because of the wealth that comes from its oil and gas industry. This is why Norweigans who can afford to buy new cars can also afford electric cars.
So ... yay?
