Norway is a petro state. Those EVs are green washing, paid for by exporting fossil fuel. Those EVs will all be broken in a few years and they will send them to land fill and buy another lot. Not half as smart as building public transport and liivible cities.
Australia could also be a petro state and own the profits from mineral extraction and invest it for our people but the risk of doing that is becoming addicted to fossil fuel revenue.

EV batteries are nearly always recycled.
