London Taxi Company’s range-extended electric black cab was comprehensively and successfully tested in Arizona to perform well in hot weather conditions. Testing was done to demonstrate that the company’s product could perform in extremely hot climates potential buyers such as Dubai are located in.
“Since announcing this project we have had considerable interest not just from European cities but hot weather cities around the world. To convert this interest into sales we must prove TX5 can perform as well in the 45° Celsius heat of Dubai as it can in the sub-zero temperatures of the Arctic, and as it does in the changeable conditions of London,” CEO of the London Taxi Company, Chris Gubbey, said.
Next up is testing in extremely humid environments and in mountainous terrain.
