I have Norwegian friends, I visit Norway often. Much information in the article is not true. People living there had no choice, instead they were economically forced to buy electric cars. Combustion engine cars were just artificially made more expensive by high taxes and extra fares. There is electric regime there ruling the country (actually not only electric but this is not the point here). I can give the example of how this electric madness influences tourists as I experienced it myself: you drive to Oslo on your way back to Europe and want to see Vigeland park. On your way you pass some automatic payment gates (they are not only around capital but also they are placed in random locations). You find a dedicated parking place nearby which has most of the places for electric cars only and few places left are mostly occupied by some steel constructions temporarily left by workers. So most of a place is empty but you have no place to park your car. In general in Oslo there are very old parking houses which are extremly expensive and parking along the street is very often allowed for 1-2 hours only. There are parking machines but not when the parking place has no time limit: you need application there to be able to pay but the application may not work in your phone for unknown reason. I am pretty sure proudly electric Norway will soon forget about the fact that most of the tourists do not use electric cars and after entering Norway they will become drastically incompatible with the regime regulations (leave the car in the field and go to the city with the bus, pay huge amount of money per 1 hour of driving near/in the city or maybe pay huge amount of money at the border?). They will surely not forget about penalty for their own citizens for daring to move around with the car (why should they give up payments even when all cars are electric?). We need to have a choice. If we don't, it is a regime.
