Tesla closed 2025 as Norway’s top-selling carmaker for the fifth consecutive year and sold 27,621 cars in the country, giving it a 19.1% market share, the report shows. Electric vehicles made up 96% of Norway’s new-car sales in 2025 and 98% of registrations in December. A government decision to apply up to $5,000 in value-added tax per vehicle starting Jan. 1, 2026, helped spur demand before the change.

Elsewhere in Europe, Tesla continued to see weakness. December registrations fell 66% in France and 71% in Sweden. Region-wide figures for the EU, the United Kingdom and EFTA countries show registrations declined to 22,801 vehicles in November from 26,191 a year earlier, with market share slipping year-on-year in every month through November.

Shares of TSLA rose nearly 3% in pre-market trading on the day of the report, and the stock is up about 11% over the past 12 months. Retail sentiment on Stocktwits was noted as bearish at the time of the report.
