Hyundai is ending 2020 by stopping the sale of gas and diesel engines in Norway. It’s not a huge market for the Korean automaker but it points to the company’s global plans to be a major player in electric vehicles and step away from fossil-fuel vehicles.
The website BilNorge.no reports Hyundai Motor Norway sold its latest pure fossil car in Norway. From now on, only a fully electrified and rechargeable model range applies. [Google Translate seems to do a good job with translating the site into English by the way.]
