    Yeah but i didnt say that its not progress. Also its pretty fucking annoying when you have two pretty large cities and theres a straight highway connecting them but when you take the train its so bad that its faster to go through sweden. Also you cant tell me that a country with as much money as norway cant build a proper fast train line that goes up north. Theres a straight-ish train line to trondheim from oslo and its still slower than going by car. Also norway being a rich country, they probably(im kinda guessing here) switch cars pretty often, and upfront environmental damage for electric cars is even worse than gasoline ones.

      I’m guessing they don’t throw the cars into a landfill, they resell them (maybe to other countries) so people who can’t afford a new electric car then buy them and reduce the gas consumed even more.
