There are now more LEVC (London Electric Vehicle Company) TX electric taxis on the streets of London than diesel TX4s, as the capital’s transition to a clean, green EV black cab fleet continues to accelerate.

LEVC’s advanced TX electric taxi now represents more than 40 percent of official black cabs, with over 6,000 vehicles operating in the capital.

Powered by its eCity technology, the TX taxi has travelled more than 534 million miles globally and prevented 162,000 tonnes of CO2 being emitted into the atmosphere, since it was introduced in 2018.

“We are witnessing a significant tipping point in the push towards cleaner transportation, with the TX overtaking the diesel-powered TX4 as the cab of choice in London” said Alex Nan, CEO of LEVC. “There are now more than 6,000 TX electric taxis operating in the capital, accounting for over 40 percent of the black cab fleet. Since LEVC launched the revolutionary TX taxi, it has successfully delivered an unrivalled sustainable mobility solution, perfectly suited for urban environments. With each new TX on the road, we are preventing thousands of tonnes of harmful emissions, helping to create healthier and happier cities.”

The TX taxi is an accessible and inclusive vehicle for all, regardless of age or disability. Featuring flexible space for up to six passengers, the vehicle includes an integrated wheelchair ramp enabling the TX to accommodate a forward-facing wheelchair – the only taxi of its kind to do so.

LEVC has announced a new brand strategy to become a leading zero-carbon mobility technology company. The company’s new direction will see it aiming to deliver smart, green, safe, and accessible mobility solutions to more people than ever before.
