The best-selling Norwegian vehicle of all time
A leader in sustainable last mile
we are proud to be
A part of the HTS group
The history goes all the way back to 1919, when Ludvig Andreas Thorgersen started to produce saddles. Wich later led to upholsteries, car-seats for kids, ski boxes, and accessories for vans. Just to mention some things. Loyds became a part of the HTS group in 1994, and after a couple of decades, they developed Paxster; the only electric vehicle currently manufactured in Norway!
"We will contribute to a better world for next generations by accelerating sustainable logistic solutions in smart cities."
Our history
Paxster arose as a result of a long-term collaboration with Norway Post (Posten Norge). For several years, Loyds had supplied partitions and facilities for their cars, and it was when they announced their ambitious environmental goals, that the process of mapping how all their vehicles worked started. Together with Norway Post, we found several things about the solutions they had, which were inefficient and profitable. We were met with divided options in Norway Post, some were enthusiastic and some skeptical. But in the end, we got approval to go ahead and work on defining the best ergonomic solutions, together with the drivers theirselves.
After a few intense months, the first prototype was ready. In the time ahead, we worked closely with Norway Post to test and adapt the vehicle to become the vehicle of the future for the delivery of mail, parcels, and newspapers.
We were so lucky to get Eker Design to design the vehicle and make the Paxster an icon that was easily recognizable in addition to a modern look. This led to us winning both the «Award for good design» and the «Honorary award for Good design» in 2013. In the autumn the same year, Paxster was put into production for the Norwegian market.
On July 1st 2015 Paxster was transferred to a separate AS, and over time we have sold Paxster to many countries around the world and built our own service teams. We are constantly working hard to develop our vehicles to be the best in class when it comes to efficiency, ergonomics, and safety.
