It’s not that Teslas are cheap in Norway, it’s just that everything else is expensive. Gas and diesel are ironically expensive, the taxes for regular cars are prohibitively high, and if you want a fast car the taxes are straight up punitive. Electric cars are free from taxes what so ever. This, plus not having to subscribe to gas, and that electricity is green and cheap. The tax-excemptions will not last forever, however, so at the time being selling Teslas is like selling hundred dollar bills for half price.
