So far, just over 3000 electric cars have been sold this year, with two out of three cars going to private customers. The combined share of electric cars, both in private and corporate purchases, is 2022% in 88 so far. As we know, throughout 2021, the same percentage was 65%, all according to OFV data.
– Just over two weeks of car sales is not enough to say something about the whole of 2022. However, it is obvious that there are many indications that 2022 could be a great year for electric car sales, says Bradland
- More and more models of electric cars with a greater range and good space are appearing on the market. This contributes to the fact that more people choose an electric car. At the same time, electric cars are still VAT free, continues Braadland
Electric cars are still VAT free
Currently, the electric car is free of VAT, which means you will avoid a 25% surcharge on the price. The government has announced that it will introduce VAT on electric cars with a deduction of 600 crowns. NAF expects this to happen from 000.
The world's largest electric car test
High sales of electric cars makes there a high demand for correct and comparable information about the range of electric cars. It is especially interesting how far electric cars will go in winter, which is an element of uncertainty. NAF is testing all electric cars that come to market, and next week the member body will conduct a winter test with 30 new electric cars.
NAF is conducting the world's largest electric car test on January 26 and 27, concludes Thor Egil Braadland.
