Tesla's European sales rout continues but new Model Y boosts Norway deliveries

However, Norway, where Tesla has started delivering revamped versions of its midsize SUV Model Y, provided a lone bright spot for the company as it prepares to roll out the refreshed vehicle in more European markets from this month.
