    That’s ironic considering Tesla sales plummeted in other places. Maybe they’re shamelessly buying up all the used ones people are selling out shame?

    Just a misleading claikbit headline. Tesla market share is still down (still leading tho, but not for long):

    The battle for car buyers has not diminished with an increasing number of Chinese brands and models on the market around the world. In Norway, too, many people are choosing Chinese cars, which so far this year have a market share of around 12 per cent. A small increase, but relatively stable. On the other hand, Tesla, which has long dominated new car sales, is currently struggling in Norway. At the beginning of May, Tesla had a market share of 11 per cent, compared with 18 per cent at the same time last year.

      Thanks for posting the actual numbers. Tesla model Y may be the leading model, but Tesla only has that one model in top 10, totaling 7.7% on the list.
      VW is clearly the leading brand now, with 3 models in top 10 and 18.1% of the market with those.

      So a bit funny to make a headline that says Tesla model Y leads the charge, when VW has more than twice the BEV market share of what Tesla has.
