I don't know about the incentives in Norway, but the U.S. federal tax credit for the purchase of new Tesla electric vehicles will not phase out in 2015.
Here's what the IRS says:
Tesla will not have sold a total of 200,000 EVs in the U.S. until sometime in 2016 at the earliest, and probably not until 2017 or 2018. At that point this begins the 1-year phase out period of the credit.
Here's what the IRS says:
The new qualified plug-in electric drive motor vehicle credit phases out for a manufacturer’s vehicles over the one-year period beginning with the second calendar quarter after the calendar quarter in which at least 200,000 qualifying vehicles manufactured by that manufacturer have been sold for use in the United States (determined on a cumulative basis for sales after December 31, 2009) (“phase-out period”). Qualifying vehicles manufactured by that manufacturer are eligible for 50 percent of the credit if acquired in the first two quarters of the phase-out period and 25 percent of the credit if acquired in the third or fourth quarter of the phase-out period.
