Tesla Model S: Norway's Best-Selling Electric Car

Introduction

Tesla is on a roll. After launching the Tesla Model S in Europe in August, this car has already become Norway’s best-selling car in September. It took the crown from the VW Golf as per the official figures – Model S had a market share of 5.1% while Golf had 4.6%. This success is largely due to customer anticipation and a willingness to purchase used models for an additional $20,000 from existing owners. This is surprising since the Model S is not actually cheap, costing above $110,000 in Norway.

Key Features of the Tesla Model S

Some of the highlights of the car are as follows:

• Top speed: 201 km/h
• 0-100 km/h: under 5.5 seconds
• Range: ~480 km on a single charge

Award-Winning Performance

This car is already sweeping awards all over the world and has become the best seller in its native land – the USA. We only wish we could see this car in this region soon.
