The Bodywork The body includes crumple zones designed to absorb impact. There are foam-reinforced bumpers in the front and rear. The tinted windshield -- 48% bigger than the earlier models, increases visibility and is laminated for safety. And, if you are in a "fender bender", front and rear wing panels are bolted (not welded) on for fast, easy replacement Security Partition In every London Taxi you'll find a removable security partition between you and the passenger compartment. You have central control of the locks on all doors, including a door-mounted switch can be used to lock the front doors only. Seating All of the passenger seats are equipped with three point inertia reel seat belts. Other features include yellow seat-edge strips, sill edges and door handles for better visibility and a built-in child seat so that children can travel in absolute safety. The adjustable driver's seat in the London Taxi is based on the same advanced seat technology that you find in most modern trucks. It's designed to keep you relaxed during long, hard stints at the wheel. It's adjustable too, and it's engineered to provide support exactly where your body needs it most. The ergonomically designed controls are all highly visible and within easy reach. The London Taxi is a purpose-built passenger carrier, with special design features such as: High and wide opening doors, making getting in and out quick and easy Five passenger seats including a wide, comfortable rear seat plus two flip down seats for occasional use Floor to ceiling height of 4 feet 6 inches allowing ample head- room even for tall passengers Wheelchair accessible; High and wide opening doors. Spacious rear compartment allow quick and easy entry and exit for all passengers. Fold-down wheelchair ramp. Flat unobstructed floor and high roof for wheelchair maneuverablity within the compartment. Wheelchair locking position and seat belt configuration. Step and Swivel Seat; Easy access for elderly people, or passengers with mobility problems. Illuminated intermediate step closer to the ground. Strategically located grab handles. Swivel seat with an integrated backrest for easy, comfortable entry with minimal driver assistance. Grab handles and swivel seat edge are brightly colored for vision-impaired passengers. Swivel seat locks into position and is equipped with 3-point safety belt Easy Pull Exterior Door Handles Great help to arthritis sufferers. Door handles light up when the taxi is for hire. Added assistance to vision-impaired passengers entering the taxi Brightly Colored Handles and Seat Edges Grab handles, seat edges and entry sills are brightly colored. Makes conditions easier for passengers with poor eyesight. Features For The Hearing Impaired Intercom system enables the driver to speak clearly to the passenger, while keeping the partition closed for security. Includes an induction loop for the benefit of passengers with hearing aids. Integrated Child Seat The safety of young children is enhanced with an integrated child seat, which is built into central armrest.

European consumers and taxi owners flock to new advanced-technology diesel to get better fuel efficiency, more power, and more durability. Although many people are not aware of the recent technological advances that have markedly improved the diesels engine’s performance and reduced emissions. In Europe, diesel power dominates the taxi markets and continues to gain market share in the prestigious luxury vehicle sector with models from Audi, BMW, Mercedes Benz, SAAB, and Volvo offering high levels of performance, refinement and reliability. Diesels hold significant inherent performance advantages over gasoline engines in fuel efficiency, power, durability and certain emissions. Diesel’s superiority in these areas has made it the overwhelming choice for most heavy-duty engine applications worldwide, including in the United States. The same performance characteristics that lie behind diesel’s dominance in the heavy-duty sector lay the foundation for diesel’s light-duty popularity in Europe. Better Fuel Efficiency Light-duty diesels use 20-25% less fuel than gasoline engines of similar power, depending on the type of vehicle and driving conditions.The model year 2002/2003, London Taxi will achieve 25–27 miles per gallon in the city and 32 – 34 miles per gallon on the highway Diesels produce more drive force (torque) at lower engine speeds than gasoline engines. This superior drive force is the result of the diesel engine combustion process, known as “compression ignition.” Diesel engines are generally more durable than spark ignition engines. Light-duty diesel engines, when properly maintained and treated well, generally last well over 500,000 miles. Maintenance intervals are also generally longer for diesels. For example, the manufacturer’s recommended service interval for the Ford 2.4-liter turbo diesel is 9,000 miles, while the recommendation for a comparable gasoline engine is 3,000 miles.
