Nissan minivans to be NYC's next cabs
|
|
A boxy minivan made by Nissan will be the next iconic yellow cab in New York City, Mayor Michael Bloomberg announced May 3. The model, selected from among three finalists in a city competition, is designed so it can eventually be updated with an electric engine. The city is exploring the possibility of ultimately replacing its entire fleet of more than 13,000 taxis with vehicles powered by electricity. The Nissan van will be phased in beginning in 2013 as older taxis age out of service. (AP)
