It was crazy to visit Oslo or Amsterdam in the mid-2010s and notice just what a high % of vehicles were Tesla Model S's.

Car ownership is expensive and unnecessary so people with wealth bought the environmentally positive status symbols. There was simply no equivalent.

I wonder what will replace it.

It is likely that most of the teslas you saw around Amsterdam were part of the Schiphol airport taxi fleet. They went all in on tesla about a decade ago.
