      Norway usually sells 10-15k cars per month, but in December, sold over 35k new cars. […] Overall car sales only numbered 2,218 cars in January.

      From electrek.

      A month where sales are below 20% of the usual sales isn’t repreaentative.

      Considering Model Y was only 2.8% of sales, then with a 20% bigger drop than the market in general, it would probably have been about 25% higher, speculating that model 3 would add another 1.5% that would be (2.8+1.5) x 1.25 = 5.4% marketshare before this latest drop.
      So with a total drop of about 70%, discounting Tesla it would probably be about 67-68%. It wouldn’t for instance be less than 65%.

        If the EV sales are down that much in general, I think the headline is pretty misleading. Yes, Tesla performed worse than other brands, but it’s not like people boycotted Tesla specifically more than last year. Unfortunately.
