Some of us live in cities like NY, Chicago and Las Vegas, where taxis are common.
Currently, most taxis are Ford Crown Victorias. Remember the old Checker made vehicles made exclusively for taxi use?
Well, it was only time until someone would desing a new type of a taxicab!

What's really cool is how the auto industry does'nt apply all of this technology to the current automobiles they offer. Seeing as all of the advantages of the "new taxi" are actually what most car owners are looking for. Detroit really has their finger on the pulse of American auto enthusiests...not. But hey, good for taxi drivers.
