And a right-wing party in Parliament, the Progress Party, once again called for a cut in gasoline taxes, which account for about 67 percent of the price.

So it would be $2.19/gallon without the taxes....

Sanity check .... $2.19 is about what gas costs in the USA after taxes. So, this raises my question:

Is Norway buying gasoline from another country, that has already added their tax; and then is adding another massive tax bill? If so, maybe Norway should look into building their own refineries. This simply doesn't make any sense.
