Not to be snarky, but tourists with cars are widely frowned upon by Norwegians. They tend to bring their own food and they pass automatic toll booths which Norwegian cities have no practical way of collecting. And this view is as see it fully biparisan. A tourists tax is supported by all major parties and will be implemented at some point. Also supported by The Confederation of Norwegian Enterprises. Your point is mostly valid though. Norway has been heavily incentivised to shift to electric. Though the incentives has been good. Gass, toll and taxes was always expensive i Norway.
