The report presents trends in the Norwegian taxi market from the deregulation in November 2020 to March 2023. The period has been characterised by major changes, caused by changes in regulations and the impact of the pandemic. There has been a rapid establishment of new businesses, particularly in and around Oslo, resulting in an increase in the number of taxi vehicles and businesses. However, the turnover in the taxi industry has decreased. The fleet has also shifted towards more electric and cheaper cars, while older vehicles seem to have remained in the fleet longer than before. Working conditions in the taxi industry were difficult before and continue to be so. The development is more negative in the largest cities than in rural areas.
