  1. But while the sales have gone up, they have actually lost market share in Norway now.

  4. Ethics of their CEO aside, they still offer an excellent product for a competitive price (and 0% financing doesn’t hurt either).

  5. I am not Norweigian, please help me understand.
    I used to think of the norweigian people as being concious and committed to greater causes, but they keep buying cars from a lunatic who insists on supporting the far right around the world.
    Norweigians have sympathy for the Nazi salute he made? Or is it some other reason to buy more of those cars?

  6. Skuffende, det er jo så mange (imo) bedre alternativer.

  7. Up? It was still down by 32% in April, and has not had many top spots all year. As here the top sellers are those with new EVs. A new EV appears, they peak that month until a new EV comes and pushes the old one down to 5th. No new EVs from other brands that month usually makes Tesla go higher.

    Tho most pick Tesla in general due to how more effective they have been with charger coverage… Unlike the US. They even cover the mountain roads here. They did not buy it to feed Elons ego I suspect

  8. Just join a Norwegian tesla forum or owners group. Its not just a car its a cult. 

  11. I’m sat at a train station waiting for a colleague and I’m surrounded by Teslas, I can see 7 and I haven’t left the car…

    It’s certainly Tesla country, think all you need to fit in is a pair of Hoka trainers, peak performance hoody and Tesla 😀

  12. I’m surprised.

    In America sales have plummeted. And those who have Teslas put “I bought it before Elon went crazy” stickers on it or they just plain sell it.

    Norway, you REALLY don’t want to support this guy. He’s directly contributing to destabilizing your continent.

    I know it seems like it’s just a car, but he’ll be in your politics very shortly if he thinks he can fuck with it. He is a genuine monster, and that is not an exaggeration.

  14. I get less and less respect for my fellow countrymen. Trash.

  15. Parked my sleek Model S at a city mall. A bunch of left-leaning girls came up, ranting about how awful Tesla is. Grabbed a whole stack of stickers saying “I bought this car before Elon went crazy” and tossed them all in the trash on my way in. My wife just ordered her first car. No doubt it had to be a Tesla.
