Norway has become the first country in the world where the number of electric cars exceeded the number of gasoline cars.
This is reported by BBC, according to a report by the Norwegian Road Traffic Council (OFV), published on Wednesday, September 18.
It is predicted that by 2026 there will also be more electric cars than diesel cars in the country.
Today, of the roughly 2.87 million cars registered in Norway, almost one million are diesel, 754,303 are electric, and 753,905 are gasoline. A further 364,388 cars are hybrid.
According to OFV’s forecast, the total number of passenger cars in Norway will increase to around 3.1 million by 2030.
At the same time, over the past twenty years, more than one million gasoline cars have been removed from the Norwegian car fleet and replaced mainly by electric cars.
“The same will happen with diesel cars,” the report says.
In June 2023, more electric cars (158,000, or 15.1%) than diesel-powered cars (139.6,000, or 13.4%) were sold in the European Union for the first time.
At that time, gasoline cars were in first place (36% of sales), and hybrid cars were in second place (24%).
