THE Norwegian island of Finnoey has the highest density of electric cars in the world. The reason? They are exempt from the US$6,000-a-year (RM25,190) toll charges for the tunnel to the mainland.
There has been a surge in sales of fully electric cars like Teslas and Nissan Leafs since the tunnel opened in 2009 and they now account for one in five cars on Finnoey, compared with less than one in 100 globally.
