Very interesting. Where I am in North America, nearly every taxi is electric, and I think I’ve seen two electric delivery vehicles in the last five years.
I wonder why our transportation is so very opposite.
There is so much online shopping that distribution centers are roughly every 10km so you go back to base get a load and a new battery. Same for food.
The difference is there isn't really a car charging network here like in the US. Most of the charging here is just using normal sockets or at home. I charge my batteries overnight twice a week. There are a number of charging points in the public garage but it is still slow charging.
So not good enough for a taxi going all over the city but good enough for delivery.
Do you mean hybrid? Or really electric? Which brand, models do taxi use?
May I inquire where? To the best of my knowledge, I’ve never seen one.
Maybe Uber/Lyft around here you’d see a few, but never a taxi.
Spoke to a driver about it once and the Tesla’s rarely do more than a single charge in day.
