As Mann & Overton we introduced steel bodied, purpose-built cabs and diesel engines to combine an enhanced passenger experience with rugged dependability.. As LTI, we met the challenges of new safety and accessibility legislation to open up new opportunities for drivers. And as the London Taxi Company, we helped the trade rise to meet the needs of 21st Century cities. Our name has changed. Who we are and who we serve never has.. MOVING FORWARD Our industry is changing. As our cities expand and become more congested, so the need for on-demand personal mobility increases. Concerns over air-pollution continue to grow as the health impacts are better understood.. Taxis need to offer drivers the comfort and flexibility of a mobile office. Reliability and durability must meet the demands of cities that never sleep.

  • Taxi and Private Hire Vehicle Emissions Policy PDF 2 MB
    Appendices: 7 LICENSING COMMITTEE REPORT Report Taxi and Private Hire Vehicle Emissions Policy Title AGENDA STATUS: PUBLIC Committee Meeting Date 5th December 2017 Policy Document: Taxi & Private Hire Vehicle Emissions Policy Directorate: Customers & Communities 1. Purpose 1. To consider a Private Hire & Taxi Vehicle Emissions Policy to improve the air quality and reduce the health impact for the residents and visitors to Northampton Town 2. Recommendations 2. That taking account of consultation responses received, the Committee adopt the proposed Hackney and Private Hire Vehicle Emission Policy. Appendix A 3. Issues and Choices Report Background 3.1 On the 13 September 2016 the Licensing Committee agreed for consultation to be undertaken in respect of the proposed Hackney and Private Hire Vehicle Emissions & Age Policy. 3.2 This report is only concerned with an Emissions Policy. 3.3 Consultation was undertaken between the 24th November 2016 and the 16th February 2017 and the findings of the consultation are detailed in section 5 of this report. 3.4 Since a change in vehicle policy in 2012, the trade have voiced concerns that the standard of vehicles has fallen within the town and, in particular older vehicles are now being licensed that have high emissions, creating a less environmental friendly fleet of taxi and private hire vehicles. The Hackney trade have requested that an age policy is reintroduced, and have asked for this to be considered as a matter of urgency, to avoid a gradual increase in the number of older vehicles entering the trade. 3.5 The age policy has been deferred to a later date as any emission policy, if adopted, will restrict the minimum age of a licensed vehicle and has the potential to impact upon any maximum age policy.

  • The Role of LS-DYNA® in the Design of the New London Electric Taxi
    15th International LS-DYNA® Users Conference Automotive The Role of LS-DYNA® in the Design of the New London Electric Taxi Jamie Dennis1, Simon Hart1 1Arup (Advanced Technology and Research), Solihull, UK Abstract The iconic London taxi is known worldwide. The London Taxi Company (LTC) has produced this much loved vehicle for many years with few radical changes. Recently, zero-emission legislation in London and the global demand for cleaner vehicles has prompted an evolution in its design. With investment from owner Geely, the newly branded London EV Company (LEVC) will produce several thousand electric taxis per year from its new headquarters in Coventry, UK. The designers, Emerald Automotive Design (EAD), engaged Arup to analyse all structural and safety load cases. This paper discusses how the versatility of LS-DYNA and the modularity of the keyword file enabled Arup to use a single-model approach for all analysis - from full vehicle crashworthiness through to component- level durability checks - and how this facilitated an efficient division of activity between remote teams in the UK and China. The application of both explicit and implicit LS-DYNA to the various load cases is considered, together with the correlation against physical testing. Special challenges were posed by the requirement to comply with Transport for London’s (TfL) Conditions of Fitness and the need to protect the high-voltage components. Reliance on the LS-DYNA predictions was high, with few prototype stages afforded by the accelerated programme. Successful progression directly from simulation to legislative testing sign-off was achieved for cases including pedestrian protection. Arup’s use of LS-DYNA was key in bringing this lightweight bonded aluminium taxi to market, whilst minimising energy consumption and delivering a solution to the issue of sustainable city transport.
