📖 逐句对照翻译
Norway is very close to meeting its goal of selling only fully electric new vehicles starting this year.
挪威即将实现其目标,即从今年起只销售全新电动汽车。
The Norwegian Road Federation (OFV), an automotive industry group, estimates that nearly 96 percent of new cars registered in Norway in January were all-electric.
挪威道路联合会(OFV)是一个汽车行业组织,其估计1月份在挪威注册的新车中,近96%为纯电动汽车。
No other country has such a high rate of electric car (EV) ownership.
没有哪个国家的电动汽车拥有率如此之高。
The OFV noted that of the 9,343 new cars sold last month in Norway, 8,954 of them were all-electric.
挪威道路联合会指出,上个月挪威售出的9343辆新车中,有8954辆是纯电动汽车。
Of the 50 most-sold models, only two were non-electric.
在最畅销的50款车型中,仅有两款非电动车型。
The first of those came in 33rd place among the 50 models, the federation said.
联合会表示,这些模型中的第一个在50个模型中排名第33位。
The European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association (ACEA) reported the share of electric cars in Europe was just 13.6 percent during 2024.
欧洲汽车制造商协会(ACEA)报告称,2024年电动汽车在欧洲的市场份额仅为13.6%。
That was the first recorded decrease since 2020.
这是自2020年以来首次记录的下降。
OFV director Oyvind Solberg Thorsen said in a statement, "We've never seen this before...If the rest of the year continues like this, we will very soon be close to the 2025 goal."
OFV主任奥伊温德·索尔伯格·托尔森在一份声明中表示:“我们以前从未见过这种情况……如果今年剩余时间继续这样下去,我们很快就会接近2025年的目标。”
He noted that reaching 100 percent of the goal means to continue to offer the “incentives that make it profitable to choose an electric car over other models.”
他指出,达到100%的目标意味着要继续提供“使人们选择电动汽车而非其他车型变得有利可图的激励措施”。
Even though it is a major oil and gas producer, Norway aims to only sell "zero emission" new vehicles starting in 2025.
尽管挪威是主要的石油和天然气生产国,但其目标是自2025年起只销售“零排放”的新车。
That goal is 10 years ahead of the target set by the European Union (EU).
这一目标比欧盟设定的目标提前了10年。
Norway is not a member of the EU.
挪威不是欧盟成员国。
One difference between the EU and Norway’s method is that Norway has not banned the sale of cars with engines that burn fuel.
欧盟和挪威做法的一个不同之处在于,挪威并未禁止销售燃油发动机汽车。
Instead, Norway offers a number of tax breaks to EV manufacturers and owners.
相反,挪威为电动汽车制造商和车主提供了多项税收减免。
On the other hand, the country heavily taxes gas-powered vehicles.
另一方面,该国对燃油车辆征收重税。
For example, Norwegian EV owners do not have to pay road tolls and receive free parking in public car parks.
例如,挪威的电动汽车车主无需支付道路通行费,并可在公共停车场免费停车。
EVs are also permitted to use parts of roads normally saved for public transportation vehicles.
电动汽车也被允许使用通常保留给公共交通工具的部分道路。
Chargers everywhere

While some tax breaks and incentives have been reduced over the years, EVs have still kept expanding across Norwegian roads.

许多家庭都装有给电动汽车电池充电或供电的设备。
Norway also has a large national network of superfast charging stations.

Having a nationwide charging network was important for Hvattum, who, like many Norwegians, often travels by car to his second home in the mountains several hours outside Oslo.
拥有一个全国性的充电网络对Hvattum来说很重要,他和许多挪威人一样,经常开车前往位于奥斯陆几小时车程外的山中第二住所。
He said he finds it easy to plan and make trips with numerous charging stations available.

"You don't have to plan your trip as much as before," Hvattum said.
