2013
Boasson Hagen began the season with the stated ambition of winning one of the Spring classics,[25] but failed to attain any notable results.[26] However, Boasson Hagen returned to defend his title at the Glava Tour of Norway. After finishing as runner-up in two of the previous sprint stages, Boasson Hagen sparked a two-man breakaway with Sérgio Paulinho to win the fourth stage and consequently both the overall and points classifications.[27] Boasson Hagen would follow this up with a sprint victory on stage three of the Critérium du Dauphiné.[28]

2015
After finishing second overall of the Tour of Norway,[31] Boasson Hagen picked up his first win in two years at the Tour des Fjords, on the last stage of the race. He outsprinted a small leading group of four units to accomplish the feat.[32] In June, Boasson Hagen won the National Time Trial Championships and the National Road Race Championships after jumping from the chasing group to join the lead group in the final kilometer. He won the title in a close sprint. In the final kilometers of the 2015 Richmond UCI Road World Championships, Boasson Hagen refused to cooperate with Greg van Avermaet to close the 10 seconds gap to later winner Peter Sagan. Most likely reason for Hagen not to put an effort in the chase was his fellow countryman and sprinter Alexander Kristoff who was in the main peloton just seconds behind the duo. Hagen eventually finished 20th, just 3 seconds behind the winner.
2016
Boasson Hagen enjoyed a return to form in the early part of the 2016 campaign; taking three stage victories at the Tour of Qatar and Tour of Oman, holding race leader jerseys in both races.
