Default CityCab concept - xB / prius / concept taxi car

Blatantly stolen from Autoblog:
CityCab concept - the creation of a student design team in Finland.

Looking for all the world like a modern recreation of the London cab, the CityCab is powered by the Toyota Hybrid Synergy Drive from a Prius, and features a height-adjustable air suspension, carbon fiber bodywork, and a wheelchair-friendly interior.

The CityCab is a cooperative effort of Helsinki Polytechnic and the University of Art and Design Helsinki, and more information on the project is available at the CityCab website. In the meantime, check out the pictures and press release after the jump.
