The fuck are you doing Norway, hold the line.
It’s shit like this that brings me closer and closer to being convinced that we’re completely fucked as a species. We can’t even keep it in our pants when the fucking Fascists are at play…
Musk is not fucking over their country (yet) so they don’t give a shit.
He is a billionaire, he is definitely fucking up their country, just as he is fucking up every single county, just by being a billionaire doing billionaire things.

Tesla’s bang for buck is horrible. You get a shitty car made from the worst plastic possible, and on top of that they don’t even have good quality control. The only thing that differentiated Tesla from the competition previously was the battery technology, but they no longer have that edge nowadays.
The Norwegians are probably getting them because they got used to it, and probably don’t want to rely on Chinese cars. Beats me why they would select a Tesla nowadays over the European brands.
To be fair, shit like subscriptions for seat warmers or lane guidance makes me not want to buy European either…
All European cars have subscription for these things or just a brand or two?
It’s getting more widespread unfortunately
Except Teslas being imported to Europe are likely from the China factory.
Model Y are made in germany, I guess that’s why they are popular in europe, now some countries give subsidies only if EV is made in europe
The quality of the product completely aside, I would suggest it is your moral duty to not do business with corporations where the CEO can publicly throw sieg heils without repercussions when there are other choices available.
Money is power and Elon is a Nazi. So buying a Tesla is similar to voting for Nazis.
It’s about principles, not practicality.
It’s both
In this case, yeah, because Teslas also objectively suck as a result of the Fascist at the helm. But whenever we’re dealing with Fascists, principle should always trump practicality - we should all deal with Fascists by NOT making deals* with Fascists.
Norway. Not cool, bro.
Bizarre. So many other EV options.
That’s the last straw, Norway. You are hereby declared to once again be west Sweden.
North Denmark!
How dare you
I’d sooner buy a BYD than a Tesla. Can’t understand the Norwegian buyers at all on this.

Who can afjord a new car nowadays?
But it’s really all about the charging infrastructure and the seamless technology of the car. No one comes even close."
Norway is big and sparsely populated. Having access to supercharging stations really makes several hours difference on your roadtrip if you exceed the car’s range
idk how it is in norway, but don’t they have to let anyone charge there by now?
I understood they let anyone charge only on paper, using higher fees as a barrier for non-teslas. I might be wrong though.
Also not every station supports universal charging. Rates I’ve seen range from $0.4/kWh to $0.65/kWh (CAD)
The norwegians are shameless subhumans, unlike the englightened swedes, where Tesla has experienced a 90%+ drop in sales.
God i hope i can visit Sweden again someday
The reason might be because they pushed the new model Y with a zero down payment, zero interest at start loan. Norway has experienced higher inflation and interests rates than Sweden and coupled with NOK being a volatile currency experiencing a pretty severe devaluation that option seems good right now.
And Tesla as had a high star for years in Norway being among the most mature EV markets. Tesla was early into the Norwegian market.
😭 … Norway in population size equals a medium big city in other countries, so it doesn’t really make that much of an impact 😆
