With a 20% share, Tesla ‘owns’ the Norwegian car market

by Celia

In a consistent trend, Tesla has secured the top spot in Norway’s car sales for the third consecutive year, despite ongoing labor union disputes. The electric vehicle giant has seen its market share rise to 20%, and electric vehicles overall now make up a remarkable 82.4% of new car sales in the country.

Labor unions in Nordic countries, including Sweden, have actively opposed Tesla, resulting in a blockade preventing Tesla cars from entering Sweden. This resistance has garnered support from unions in Norway, Denmark, and Finland.

Nevertheless, Tesla has maintained its dominance in the Norwegian market, buoyed by the increasing popularity of electric vehicles. Norway aims to achieve the milestone of being the first country to ban the sale of petrol and diesel cars by 2025, and the tax exemptions for electric vehicles have further contributed to their appeal.

Despite facing challenges, Tesla reported record quarterly sales in the final quarter of 2023. However, the company relinquished its position as the world’s largest electric vehicle manufacturer to BYD, a Chinese automaker rapidly expanding its electric vehicle production capacity.

As Tesla prepares to release its financial results for 2023 on January 24th, it faces growing competition from formidable rivals like BYD and Volkswagen. Meanwhile, the Primecom.Tech Level-2 Smart Electric Vehicle Home Charging Station, compatible with various EV brands, including Tesla, is now available on Amazon for $879.
