The first two charts below illustrate the percentage usage of electric, hybrid, diesel, and petrol transport in Norway in 2008 and 2018, respectively. The third pie chart presents predictions for 2028.
Overall, petrol is expected to have the lowest demand among combustible fuels by 2028, while electric vehicles are projected to significantly surpass others, accounting for the largest share of the statistics.
The first noticeable change is in petrol usage, which made up 69% in 2008 but is expected to drop to 39% in 2018. Furthermore, the demand for petrol vehicles is anticipated to decline dramatically by 2028, reaching only 11%. Another noteworthy trend across the three charts is the rise in diesel car usage, which increased from 30% in 2008 to 46% in 2018, and is predicted to become the third most popular fuel type by 2028.
While the first chart does not provide information on fully electric cars, the third chart indicates that they are expected to account for 32% of the total by 2028, marking the highest figure compared to other fuel types. In contrast, electric vehicles made up only 4% of the total chart in 2008, indicating a decline in demand.
One significant change is anticipated in the hybrid vehicle sector, which is predicted to increase dramatically by 2028, rising to 30% from 1% in 2008 and 11% in 2018.
