Looking forward to see them! In the Europe road trip video, Bjørn spotted one at the Nürburgring, that was from the U.K. and also had a right hand drive. For me espacially, the Model S is far to expensive, but I can't wait for the Model 3 to come out. Maybe I'll get that one some day. I hope that Tesla is going to built some Superchargers around Munich till then.
Beautiful scenery, beautiful car and beautiful wife. What's more to ask for :) You can consider yourself a lucky man. Thanks for taking the effort to record the trip in a way that pleases the eye. No wonder Tesla retweeted your northern lights photo, it's perfect.
For every video i see from you, you sell me more and more Norway! I hope to be living in there in few years time, its absolutely amazing.... even if expensive. :) As always great work, Bjorn.
Man, you know the 'supplies' joke - laughed our asses off on this one!!! Just heard it once before from a Chinese friend of ours say it - so its true, they say that :)))) Thank you for all the awesome videos! We love it :)
Thanks for the videos. I've been ill in bed and have caught up on the videos. They remind me of our tour on Norway in 1998 with our 3.5l Discovery V8, the opposite if the tesla. We got 20 mpg average! Love the country and love your style with mix of car and life things. Great.
Another nice video! I really liked the northern lights that you captured. I'll check out the photos later. Norway really is a beautiful country! It's a bit like Western Canada. The lake in the mountains reminded me of Lake Louise, in Banff, Alberta. Thanks!
I like the scenery at geiranger, it is beautiful and i guess now with ammery is driving, you can take more videos of the scenery. love your videos as you have put a lot of efforts on shooting it. Keep the good work.
Hi Björn, thank you for the marvelous pictures and the details of Model S. Maybe you enjoy another trip on youtube. It*s a drive with a Model S over the Stilfserjoch at more than 2700 meters above sealevel. Just search for "Lüning Stilfserjoch". (I know - it*s difficult to find an "ü"). All the best Walter
Another beautiful place shown in your video :) I must see Norway some day, especially the northern part, it's just amazing. One question just came to my mind: you wrote somewhere that for electric cars in Norway, all ferries and toll roads are free. Does it work also for EVs registered in another countries, or does it apply only for the ones registered in Norway?
I am pretty sure that "Norwegian" is not a part of that deal. As the state has no tax whatsoever on electric cars, it is not like they are spending tax money to pay for the ferries and like. Thus, it should not matter where the electric car is from. This does not go for all ferries to/from Norway though, just the ones that are in place instead of building a bridge. Going to/from Denmark still cost money.
I must say that your videos convinced me to buy Model S this winter ;-) You are truly ambasador of the Tesla!!! I can't want for your next video, so keep up the good work. What I'm missing though is a review of the latest 6.0 software update, so I hope it is in the works :-D
^-^ Such a beautiful country! I can't wait to travel there and visit it someday! Maybe by then, the Model S or the Model 3 will be available for rent to make my travels that much easier!
Cool, as usual! Norway is beautiful indeed, but not only expensive, but most of the year it is COLD :) World record... What kind of WR are you talking about? Most countries visited in a single Tesla?
A new great upload. Thanks for your effort :-) I´m not sure if to go for black or tanned interior. It looks like your interior looks still great after many km and easybring transportation. Any issues with stains not comming off?
Hey Bjørn, if you were to reorder your car, which options would you chose. Could you either make a video on this, or just write out a list in this comment. It would be great to see what options you would choose. Great video... look forward to the next :)
Martin Eriksson In cold weather and especially winter I preheat the car 15-30 minutes before departure. When I do that, there's no need for seat heaters in the back (or front). The heated wipers have also not been useful when driving in snow. What helped was turning on the front defroster which is standard equipment.
What do you think of the recent annoucements of the Model S with Autopilot and DUal motors? Would you ever consider trading in your Model S P85 for P85D?
Krásna krajina, auto. Rád by som sa zviezol a vyskúšal ho. Máš cestu na Slovensko? Otestujeme tu Tesla. Urobíme test a vyskúšame v našich podmienkách Ahoj
In Sweden you are allowed to drive 1 year if you come from for example Thailand. My wife did unfortunately not drive much first year but she is also taking driving lessons now and will hopefully have a Swedish driving licence in the end of the year. I prefer M-150 over Red Bull or Krating Däng. Then you said you cold cook "rice and shit" in the cooler did you mean rice and น้ำจิ้มเนื้อ ;) (or kee woa as I learned it was also called)? I love grilled beef and sauce with น้ำจิ้มเนื้อ.
Does the 1 year limit apply to tourists as well? We're going back to Sweden in one week. So it would be nice if my wife could drive without the L and the mirror. The "shit" is just something I always say :)
Bjørn Nyland It should not be any problem for your wife to drive in Sweden with her Thai driving licence. "Körkort från andra länder- giltighet i Sverige För att körkort från andra länder ska gälla i Sverige krävs att *körkortet är giltigt i det land där det har utfärdats, *innehavaren inte är folkbokförd i Sverige sedan mer än ett år, *innehavaren inte också har ett svenskt körkort som är omhändertaget eller återkallat, samt *körkortet inte har bytts ut mot ett svenskt körkort. Om körkortet inte är utformat enligt konventionerna 1949 eller 1968 om vägtrafik och inte heller är utfärdat på engelska, tyska eller franska, gäller det endast tillsammans med en bestyrkt översättning till engelska, tyska, franska, svenska, danska eller norska. Om körkortet saknar fotografi gäller det endast tillsammans med en identitetshandling med fotografi." www.swedenabroad.com/sv-SE/Ambassader/Abu-Dhabi/Service-till-svenska-medborgare/Utlandska-korkort-i-Sverige/
Bjørn Nyland You could be able to get some sleep then you take a trip in Sweden if your wife allows it of course. You don't need to be instructor and driving in Sweden is very similar to drive in Norway but not the same as in Thailand. I actually prefer driving in Thailand (but not in Krungthep...). My wife know now that she needs to relearn a lot of the basic fundamentals that did not matter much in Thailand but matter a lot if she wants to take the driving license in Sweden.
Hi Bjørn! Could you please clarify the exact adress or GPS coordinates of the cabins you been the day before visiting Trollstigen? Thank you and wish you an interesting trips!
Alex Veselov www.google.no/maps/place/Trollstigen+Camping,+6300+%C3%85ndalsnes,+Norge/@62.4992211,7.6710426,16z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x46140ebd77fbc47d:0x33b10535dbf4e79b?hl=no
***** Lunch at the tower was 400 kr, lunch at Union Hotel was another 450 kr. And then we bought supplies. So the total cost of food was actually more than 1000 kr. And like I said, the cabin was really inexpensive because it didn't have anything and this was low season. In comparison, when we stayed in the hotel in Bergen, one night cost 1200 kr. I guess it's hard to understand unless you live in Norway.
***** You are right. School is free here. Health-care too. For everyone, forever. This means that if you are unlucky and are born with some sort of disability, you and your family is not screwed economically for the rest of your lives. That is quite a sweet deal. Yes, we pay a whole lot of tax, but it is sure worth it. My son of 1 year old was born with a split lip, jaw and palette. What you read as an "utopia" version of the treatment on wikipedia is a writeup of how it is done here. Without companies having to weigh economics into how you are treated at hospitals, you can lay long term plan on treatment and recovery .Oh, and by the way, school is free means for everybody. I mean really everybody, if you come here to go to college or university, all you have to pay is for your books, food and for your place to live. Free for everyone in the world. Food is bloody expensive though, and a place to live too. If you can accept living outside the city centre though, it should be a whole lot less than elsewhere. A lot of the classes are in English anyway.
She's still using her iPhone. That's my new S5 that I haven't prepared for use yet. I have to migrate the data over to the new phone and install all the apps I need. She was just trying out my new phone.
Loving the b-roll shots in these older road trip videos
Can't get enough of these road trips. One day I WILL have a Tesla and will start posting my own UK adventures on TH-cam with it :-)
Awesome :)
Looking forward to see them! In the Europe road trip video, Bjørn spotted one at the Nürburgring, that was from the U.K. and also had a right hand drive. For me espacially, the Model S is far to expensive, but I can't wait for the Model 3 to come out. Maybe I'll get that one some day.

Any update on this have you gotten yourself a tesla yet ?
Northern lights and Tesla. Very nice!!!
Finally we see your Wifey driving, too :-)
Awesome car in an awesome country driven by awesome people
Beautiful scenery, beautiful car and beautiful wife. What's more to ask for :) You can consider yourself a lucky man. Thanks for taking the effort to record the trip in a way that pleases the eye. No wonder Tesla retweeted your northern lights photo, it's perfect.
Thank you for the feedback :)
Thank you for driving a Tesla and not contributing to the pollution of our planet! This video is great and shows how beautiful our planet really is :)
Thank you for watching :)
You got great pics of the northern lights.
Thank you :) The pics can be downloaded from the link in the description.
Another great video, Bjorn. Each trip seems like quite an adventure! Making each trip in a Tesla is just icing on the roadtrip cake!
Thank you for the feedback :)
For every video i see from you, you sell me more and more Norway! I hope to be living in there in few years time, its absolutely amazing.... even if expensive. :) As always great work, Bjorn.
Thank you for the feedback :)
northern lights (polar aura) are fantastic, thanks for the great pics.
Thank you for watching :)
The most landscape ever seen. Wonderful fiords. Excellent images for my eyes. Beautiful country Norway in all seasons.
Great videos. Seeing them makes me wanna buy a tesla!
Great, great photos!
Probably your best video so far. A lot of beautiful shots, scenery and good variation.
Man, you know the 'supplies' joke - laughed our asses off on this one!!! Just heard it once before from a Chinese friend of ours say it - so its true, they say that :)))) Thank you for all the awesome videos! We love it :)

Thnk u for the high res Norway lights bjorn .. Many of us can't visit the wonderful phenomenon :)
You're welcome :)

I'm loving these trips and excursions you're going on. Also thank you for my new wallpaper.
Really like your Model S videos. Please keep doing this! :)
Norway is so beautiful! Thanks for another great road trip video!
Yay, Østerdalen! Hope to see you rockin' RV3 soon! :)
Oh, yeah! I haven't driven that route for a long time, except for a trip from Dombås via Alvdal to Røros last winter.
Bjørn Nyland you should come to Portugal on vacation with your Tesla. You would love the sun!
Great video as always! Good work. Maybe I will do a road trip to Norway when I have my Model S :)
You should do that :)
What a beautiful country
Yes, indeed :)
Bjorn, awesome videos you made.
I've put up a link to dropbox with the collection of northern lights. Suitable for wallpaper or poster ;)
thanks a lot
ho yeah!
Do you have instagram Bjørn?
Dylan Mitchel
Not yet
Bjørn Nyland It is ok for the photo to post it to instagram?
Dylan Mitchel
Sure, just make sure to tag it #teslabjorn or something
Amazone landscape !!
This guy is slowly becoming my favorite TH-camr. Cracks me up...
i got excited when i saw that tesla retweeted your pic on twitter some time ago :D. what a beautiful country! and a beautiful car too ;)
Thank you :)
I feel like I'm travelling along Norway too just by watching your video, thanks man!
I like the scenery at geiranger, it is beautiful and i guess now with ammery is driving, you can take more videos of the scenery. love your videos as you have put a lot of efforts on shooting it. Keep the good work.
Thank you for watching :)
Hi Björn,
thank you for the marvelous pictures and the details of Model S.
Maybe you enjoy another trip on youtube. It*s a drive with a Model S over the Stilfserjoch at more than 2700 meters above sealevel. Just search for "Lüning Stilfserjoch". (I know - it*s difficult to find an "ü").
All the best
Walter

One question just came to my mind: you wrote somewhere that for electric cars in Norway, all ferries and toll roads are free. Does it work also for EVs registered in another countries, or does it apply only for the ones registered in Norway?
Thank you for the feedback. I'm not sure if cars from other countries get the same incentives. They should in my opinion.
I am pretty sure that "Norwegian" is not a part of that deal. As the state has no tax whatsoever on electric cars, it is not like they are spending tax money to pay for the ferries and like. Thus, it should not matter where the electric car is from. This does not go for all ferries to/from Norway though, just the ones that are in place instead of building a bridge. Going to/from Denmark still cost money.
nice love it
The photo on the thumbnail is stunning! Tesla should buy it from you!
I must say that your videos convinced me to buy Model S this winter ;-) You are truly ambasador of the Tesla!!! I can't want for your next video, so keep up the good work. What I'm missing though is a review of the latest 6.0 software update, so I hope it is in the works :-D
Wow, that's awesome. I hope you went for dual charger :) I will do the 6.0 review as soon as I can.
Bjørn Nyland Of course, was no other option on my mind ;-) Can't wait for the review, because all of your videos are pure joy to see :-P
juri
Indeed. Way much better than watching boring german television. ;-)
^-^ Such a beautiful country! I can't wait to travel there and visit it someday! Maybe by then, the Model S or the Model 3 will be available for rent to make my travels that much easier!
Hi nice video com to london for holiday I like watch your trip :)
when you were skipping rocks there it almost looked like you were going to fall in Bjorn! That would have woken you up real quick! :)
Your wife was so cute at the wheel - and she already adopted the Tesla Grin™.
You should stop by Hamar and Gjøvik, and also tour Lillehammer and the old olympic facilities. That would be cool.
Good idea :)
Cool, as usual!
Norway is beautiful indeed, but not only expensive, but most of the year it is COLD :)
World record... What kind of WR are you talking about? Most countries visited in a single Tesla?
World record attempt in electric cars in a parade.
8:50 drinking that Red Bull like electricity!
24:32 That view tells me Top Gear should definitely come and visit. Nice video as usual. Keep it up! Did you get the V6.0 update?
Top gear should visit Norway again, yes :) I got the 6.0 update and will be doing a review.
A new great upload. Thanks for your effort :-) I´m not sure if to go for black or tanned interior. It looks like your interior looks still great after many km and easybring transportation. Any issues with stains not comming off?
I wear dark jeans and my side of the seat is a bit darker than the passenger seat. But other than that, the interior stays nice for a long time :)
Oh yeah!! :D
Oh, yeah... I say that a lot :P
Bjørn Nyland
I think, in the meantime, this two little words turned to be your infofficial "trademark". :-)
Hey Bjørn, if you were to reorder your car, which options would you chose. Could you either make a video on this, or just write out a list in this comment. It would be great to see what options you would choose. Great video... look forward to the next :)
I would choose pretty much the same options, except for cold weather package.
Bjørn Nyland Why would you opt out of the cold weather package?
Martin Eriksson In cold weather and especially winter I preheat the car 15-30 minutes before departure. When I do that, there's no need for seat heaters in the back (or front). The heated wipers have also not been useful when driving in snow. What helped was turning on the front defroster which is standard equipment.
Did you have to use the brakes driving downhill, or the regen did all the work? :)
Regen did pretty much all the work :)
Bjorn nice video. How much of the battery you lose when climbing mountain compared to level ground.
13:08 Citroën XM spotted! :D Pretty rare these days!
Not that rare in Norway though given that this country have one of the highest average age on cars (10.5 years in 2013).
Ah, that explains why I saw so many "average" old cars (late 80's Toyota Corolla, as an example) when I was in Trondheim 2 years ago!
kinda weird that rich countries like Norway, New Zeeland and Sweden (9,8 years) has such old cars :/ High taxes when buying perhaps?!
***** Norway have very high taxes on cars. And EVs have no taxes. That's why Tesla is so popular here.
What do you think of the recent annoucements of the Model S with Autopilot and DUal motors? Would you ever consider trading in your Model S P85 for P85D?
Bjorn, dropbox link expired. Could you please upload photos again or to Google Drive?
How much regen did you get coming down that mountain?
How much? ||
Muito bom!!
Norge er bare så smukt. :-)
Har du planer om å besøke Preikestolen en gang i fremtiden ?
Ja, jeg har det. Jeg har laget en video om den tidligere da jeg hadde BMWen. Vi er avhengig av fint vær da. Ellers blir ikke utsikten noe å se.
Krásna krajina, auto. Rád by som sa zviezol a vyskúšal ho. Máš cestu na Slovensko? Otestujeme tu Tesla. Urobíme test a vyskúšame v našich podmienkách Ahoj
Aww.. I can't get the pictures anymore

;) nice :)
Oh wow, 73k kilometers! you're getting closer to 100k, think you can do it before 2015?
Maybe :)
Looks like 73K km - not miles.
My oh my you're totally right! oops :P
No! No energy drinks! Those things will kill you!
There are worse things than that, for example cigarettes and alcohol. We use none of that :P
I know that. Which im glad ya'll don't!
Was only giving a friendly tip to ya!

So Ammery getting her own EV later?
Maybe a Model 3 for wifey :)
Hvor i Sverige vill dere dra? :)
Vi dro til Ullared og videre til København.
When is the next video??
Hopefully finished this week. Or maybe next week.
Pleace drive model x
I will do a review if Tesla will let me borrow one :P
startet med litt "reklame" i filmene dine?;-)
Nok en gang en veldig underholdende film :-)
Åh, hva slags reklame? Jeg har drevet med det siden starten :)
Bjørn Nyland Du hadde bare så fin innledning til RedBull drikkingen ;-)
Your wife got rid of her iPhone???? :(
She's still using her iPhone. That's my new S5 that I haven't prepared for use yet. I have to migrate the data over to the new phone and install all the apps I need. She was just trying out my new phone.
Bjørn Nyland Z3 is best though with its longest battery life and I hear next year they'll come out with an oled screen.
