London’s New Eco-Taxi Service
Climatecars is London’s new eco-taxi program. By combining using hybrid cars, like the Toyota Prius, with a carbon-off-setting program, Climatecars is looking to be the greenest option for travelers in the city centre.
Climatecars received five Toyota Priuses at the beginning of June and are expecting three more in July. “We’re aiming to serve the corporate market in central London who care about their carbon footprints, and by operating a superior service we’re looking to grow quickly,” Climatecars’ founder Nicko Williamson says. “After looking at LPG, biofuels and other eco-friendly technologies, it was clear that hybrids were the natural way to go.
“The Prius is one of the greenest cars on the road, it has plenty of space and it’s a very practical option for this industry,” he says. “It’s an extremely clever vehicle with a lot of potential.”
You should be able to flag down a Climatecar starting mid-June.
