What is wrong with Spain and Portugal in March?
People are just stupid.
Source: am Portuguese. The veneration for Elongated Muskrat that exists here is insane. Please take me out of here.
Portugal is always behind 10 to 30 years. Give it some time and we might see some fires /s
Teslas are everywhere here. Considered a status symbol... <facepalm> Every time I mention "Buy EU" to people, family, and friends, they look at me like I'm an alien.
Yeah, I've lived in a couple of countries in Europe and my fellow countrymen are the least socially aware of all and easily 30 - 40 years behind Northern Europe and Scandinavia.
I moved back to Portugal some years ago, after 2 decades abroad, and in several things (mobility, environmental awareness, social values) it was like going back in time.
Things are especially bad in everything to do with cars, with people still having the same mindset as back in the 80s, even young people.
But even Eastern Europe got the note this time, I don’t know where to put Portugal on the map now at all.
The relationship of the average Portuguese with cars is still just as weirdly fucked up as it was 40 years ago.
Would be nice to see the growth compared to other electric cars. The current administration in going all in on renewables and incentives, electric cars are on the rise in general and tesla might be missing out
I think spain kinda went all in on solar, maybe those things are connected. Or the total number of sales is so low in spain, that the percentage change doesnt represent a large absolute number. Quarter wise tesla is still down in spain tho.
Spain sided with the fascists during WW2, didn’t they?
No, we were neutral.
Today's Spain is completely different than Franco's Spain though
Trump’s America kinda proves that people can lay dormant with their ideologies for decades, tho
Spains current government is argueably the most progressive in Europe right now. Shorter work week to 37.5h for example.
