1./ Norway is one of those countries which took up E-mobility in a really enthusiastic manner.

2./ The percentage of EV sales in Norway was already well above 60% of the total in 2020 itself and was steadily rising. And it could quite possibly hit almost 100% by April 2022.

3./ According to the latest report of Norway’s Road Traffic Council, sales of cars without any form of electrification is below 10% of the total, as of now.

4./
There are, however, two things to be kept in mind:

a) A fair share of the EVs in Norway are hybrids, but it’s still better than pure ICEs.
b) A specific portion of vehicles in certain niche categories might still remain rather ICEVs as opposed to electric.

5./ How did Norway achieve this?

Norway achieved their goals by providing incentives such as tax concessions, parking fee relaxation etc. However, these efforts were only required to kickstart the EV trend, as the public took up the challenge and Norway never had to look back.

6./ In fact, Norway’s goal of phasing out EVs by 2025, might be achieved fairly earlier than expected. And even past the 2025 mark, Norway might not crack down on ICEs with a ban, as the demand is approaching null anyway.

7./ Norway and their policies leading up to successful results is a really important milestone for E-mobility around the globe, nonetheless.
