> I don’t think the political factor is as big as you’d think. Norway is an oil country and has a really high share of climate skeptics. Yet EVs are selling very well. I think most people will drop their political objections to EVs the moment they find them practical and/or economical.
It looks like they would indeed be quite economical there. Norway has high gasoline prices and low electricity prices.
Electricity costs per kilometer for an EV charged at ordinary consumer rates look like they would be about 1/6th the gasoline cost per kilometer for an ICE car that gets about 40 miles per gallon or about 17 kilometer per liter.
