The Norwegian government has announced its ambitious plans to reduce vehicle emissions, including a goal to have all new cars sold by 2025 to be electric, hydrogen-powered or plug-in hybrids.

According to a new report by elbil, Norway's authorities are driving a push for vehicles with lower emissions and will continue to bring in new incentives to get its people into cleaner cars - Australian government please take note.

There are several zero-emissions incentives already in place, including access to bus lanes, lower road tax, free municipal parking and no charges on toll roads or ferries.
