Good news: the county authority has granted us ten new taxi licences. It's the biggest single step we've taken so far, and it means our fleet expansion is now properly under way.

What is a taxi licence?

In Norway, every taxi needs its own licence (a «drosjeløyve») issued by the county authority. All our cars run on our own licences, and ten new licences means room for ten new cars in the fleet.

On the way to 45

Today we have 36 cars, and we're aiming for 45 self-owned electric cars. With the new licences in place, we're now starting to add new cars. We're sticking with NIO, and most of the new cars will be black, like the rest of the fleet.

Every new car is owned by us and driven by our own, permanently employed drivers, just like today. We're growing, but we're doing it the same way as before.

What does it mean for you?

We'll share the new cars here on the blog as they arrive. Stay tuned!
