Don't sell that Crown Vic'. Planned innovations, which respond to direct input from drivers, owners and passengers, include: 2.0L 4-cylinder powertrain, engineered to enhance the emission performance and fuel efficiency of the taxi fleet; Ample room for four passengers and their luggage, substantially improved over current taxi models; A low-annoyance horn with exterior lights that indicate when the vehicle is honking, helping reduce noise pollution; Sliding doors with entry step and grab handles, providing easy entry and exit; Transparent roof panel (with shade) that will provide unique views of the city; Independently controlled rear air conditioning with a grape phenol-coated air filter to improve cabin air quality; Attractive, breathable, antimicrobial, environmentally friendly and easy-to-clean seat fabric that simulates the look and feel of leather; Overhead reading lights for passengers and floor lighting to help locate belongings; A mobile charging station for passengers that includes a 12V electrical outlet and two USB plugs; A six-way adjustable driver's seat that features both recline and lumbar adjustments, even with a partition installed; Standard driver's navigation and telematics systems. Nissan also focused on passenger safety when designing the NV200 taxi. Key safety features include: Front and rear-seat occupant curtain airbags, as well as seat-mounted airbags for the front row; Standard traction control and Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC); Sliding doors to reduce the risk of pedestrians, cyclists and other motorists getting struck by doors opening unexpectedly; Lights that alert other road users that taxi doors are opening. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-13276404 |

This guys happy with the current variety of Taxis already available: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-12094378 I agree. What if the Nissan is a pile of crap like the FX4R? You're stuck with one vehicle choice again.
