In Finnmark, Norway, a significant transformation has occurred in the car market, with nearly all new sales being electric vehicles (EVs). Just five years earlier, combustion engine cars dominated. This change is attributed to Norway's aggressive climate policy and government incentives that have made owning EVs financially attractive. By 2024, approximately 90% of new cars sold in Norway were fully electric, a stark contrast to global sale figures. The shift not only fulfills environmental goals but also adapts to the unique challenges of Norway's northern landscape.
Norway has one of the world's most ambitious climate targets. It is aiming to become carbon neutral by 2030, and cutting emissions from road traffic is an important part of that.
The government happened in Norway; generous incentives have made it economically viable for residents in remote areas like Finnmark to choose electric vehicles.
