With this latest delivery, Azerbaijan’s fleet of LEVC’s ‘black cabs’ grows to over 1,500 since the partnership with LEVC began in 2011.
This expanded TX fleet will play a vital role in this year’s COP 29, ensuring that delegates get to the venue sustainably and on time, thanks to a network of exclusive TX transport routes. The TX’s eCity powertrain technology provides a full electric-only range of up to 78 miles and a total range of over 330 miles, allowing drivers and passengers to experience the advantages of zero-emission travel alongside extended range convenience.
“As British Ambassador, I'm delighted to see the new LEVC TX’s on the road in Baku during COP29” said Fergus Auld OBE, His Majesty’s Ambassador to the Republic of Azerbaijan, speaking about the new delivery. “The TX model combines the iconic British taxi silhouette with innovative zero-emission and accessibility features that make for a thoroughly impressive vehicle.”
The TX taxis for Azerbaijan have been specially finished in Tupelo Red at the request of President Ilham Aliyev. This distinctive colour will ensure the taxis are easily recognisable to passengers in the city and to guests attending this year’s COP 29 event.
Passengers using TX will benefit from a quiet, comfortable and luxurious cabin, capable of seating six people, complete with a panoramic roof and charging points for mobile phones and laptops. Additionally, TX is purpose-built to be one of the world’s most accessible vehicles, featuring an in-built ramp, swivel chair, step, brail switches, intercom and hearing induction loop, floor mounted wheelchair anchors and more.
