Volkswagen Milano

Automobiles

The Volkswagen Milano is a prototype of an electric taxi that was first presented at the Hanover Fair in April 2010. It is a van-type car with three doors, an 85 kW electric motor and a 45 kWh lithium-ion battery. Market introduction was planned for 2013 but did not occur, for reasons the article calls unknown. The Milano was unveiled in London on 14 December 2010, the same day that transport minister Philip Hammond announced the 5,000 pound electric car subsidy and London Mayor Boris Johnson set out plans in his air quality strategy to phase out the oldest of the black cabs, including a one million pound fund to encourage taxi owners to upgrade to low-emission vehicles such as electric taxis.
