@robz Electric cars are heavily subsidized in Norway. No taxes or VAT and they can drive on toll roads and on ferries for free. Those of us who despite the subsidies can't afford to buy an electric car and have to make do with a used diesel or petrol car are taxed more through high fuel prices and road toll (there are around 30 toll stations in Bergen alone now!) to finance all these benefits for those who buy electric cars.
@helstor365 Gosh - that's a very different scenario - it does seem quite divisive - the have's against the have-not's. Probably a good move environmentally but not a happy method for society. I wouldn't like to try to predict how this would work over here - our huge distances and rough conditions make electric cars not very feasible in a lot of areas.
