Car Subscriptions in Norway
Norway is the world's most electrified car market, with nearly all new cars sold now fully electric, and that shapes its subscription scene.
Monthly car subscriptions (bilabonnement) took off here early, helped by high purchase taxes on combustion cars, fast-moving EV technology and buyers wary of being stuck with an outdated battery. The Norwegian Consumer Council has even compared providers, finding big differences in mileage, excess and flexibility.
Today the main options are electric-focused subscription specialists such as imove, Toyota's KINTO Flex, and monthly rental from Avis and Sixt. Prices depend heavily on the car, the binding period and the mileage band. Most plans include insurance, servicing and the twice-yearly tyre change, while tolls, ferries and charging remain your own cost.

Why choose a car subscription in Norway?
Tyre change included
Studded or non-studded winter tyres are essential across much of Norway; most subscriptions cover the seasonal change and tyre hotel.
No large upfront cost
Subscriptions avoid the down payment typical of car loans, and providers handle registration and annual road-use fees.
EU-control handled
The periodic roadworthiness test (EU-kontroll) and servicing are the provider's responsibility during the subscription.
Insurance in one price
Comprehensive (kasko) insurance is usually included, sparing you separate quotes and bonus-ladder considerations.
Flexible for changing needs
Short binding periods and the option to swap cars suit families, newcomers and people waiting for a new car.

There is no deposit and no binding after the first 30 days, so it works as a flexible bridge between ownership or leasing. Standard SIXT rental terms apply, a credit check is required, and extras such as child seats, GPS and additional drivers cost more. Quotes come from local SIXT branches or customer service. It suits business travellers, project staff and anyone needing a car for a month or two without a subscription contract.
Minimum term: 30 days

Guide
How car subscriptions work in Norway
You pick a car online, choose a binding period (often one, six or twelve months) and a monthly mileage band, and pass a credit check, usually with BankID. You need a valid driving licence; some providers set the minimum age at 23–25 for certain cars. Deposits are rare among subscription specialists, while rental companies may require a credit card. Insurance with an excess of several thousand kroner is typical, and you pay for charging, tolls (bompenger via AutoPASS) and ferries yourself, usually re-invoiced by the provider.
Things to check before you subscribe
- Compare the insurance excess (egenandel), which can range from 0 to 10,000 kr.
- Check the monthly kilometre allowance and price per extra kilometre.
- Find out how tolls, ferries and parking charges are re-invoiced and whether fees apply.
- Confirm the binding period and whether you can pause or swap cars.
- Check whether winter tyres are studded or non-studded and if the tyre hotel is included.
Business
Car subscriptions for business
Companies use subscriptions and monthly rental to cover temporary staff, projects or fleet gaps without long leasing commitments. Benefit-in-kind taxation of company cars available for private use, VAT on cars and the treatment of electric vehicles have changed in recent years and differ between rental and ownership, so ask your accountant or Skatteetaten how the rules apply to your situation.
Frequently asked questions
Why are car subscriptions popular in Norway?
High taxes on combustion cars, a rapid shift to EVs and uncertainty about battery value make it attractive to let a provider carry depreciation. Subscriptions also bundle insurance and tyre changes in one price.
Are tolls included in a subscription?
No. Tolls and ferry charges are registered to the car and passed on to you, often with an administration fee.
Is winter tyre changing included?
Most providers include seasonal tyre changes and storage; check whether studded tyres are offered if you drive in the north or inland.
What insurance excess should I expect?
Excess levels vary by provider, from zero with some rental products to around 6,000–10,000 kr with subscription specialists.
Can I take the car abroad?
Many providers allow driving in Europe, sometimes with conditions or fees. Check the terms before travelling to Sweden or beyond.
