The Society We Want to Realise with the Next Generation Taxi

Our society in 2020 aims to be a universal, environmentally-friendly, safe and secure place, with mobility playing a key role in achieving this. Taxis are an integral part of any cityscape, forming an essential part of door-to-door transport. Toyota’s approach to creating a ‘next generation’ taxi is to take the shape and form of “the spirit of hospitality” and bring that approach to life through design and engineering. Their aim is to design an iconic, next generation taxi based on usability and long-lasting design, creating a vehicle that is inclusive of driver and passenger needs.
