In Norway, diesel and gas cars are becoming obsolete. Almost nine out of ten new cars sold in the Scandinavian country are now electric vehicles, according to data released by the Road Traffic Authority on Thursday. This means that Norway is almost at its target of only putting new electric vehicles on the roads from 2025. „Norway will be the first country in the world to pretty much remove diesel and gasoline vehicles from the new car market,“ says Christina Bu, head of the Norwegian Electric Car Association.
