Norway is seen as a pioneer in the field of
electromobility: around 60% of vehicles sold there are powered by
electricity. As a new infographic from Block-Builders.net shows,
the proportion of new Tesla registrations there has recently
fallen considerably - in 2020, just 7% of new electric cars will
be produced by Tesla, compared to a share of 16% last
year.
15,686 Tesla Model 3 were sold in Norway in 2019. Up
to the end of September this year, however, just under 3,000
units had been sold. The Audi e-Tron ranks first in Norway for
new electric vehicle registrations between January 1 and
September 24, with 7,801 vehicles sold. VW's E-Golf is in second
place with 4,881 units sold.
However, outside of Norway the outlook is more
positive for the US producer. Tesla sold a total of 90,891
vehicles in the second quarter, compared to 95,356 units in the
same period last year. Nonetheless, relative to many competitors
the electric pioneer has come through the corona crisis
comparatively well, and this is also reflected on the trading
floor. As can be see in the infographic, the price of Tesla
shares has risen by 718% within the last 365 days. The market
value of many competitors declined over the same
period.
Overall, 40% more electric cars with batteries were
registered in the European Union during the first half of the
year than in the same period of 2019.
"In terms of absolute sales figures, Norway is far
from being the most important market for e-vehicles," adds
Block-Builders analyst Raphael Lulay. "However, developments in
the land of electromobility could signal a reversal of the trend
- showing that recent efforts of German car manufacturers in the
field of electromobility are slowly but surely paying
off".
