Lincoln (NE) Yellow Cab Adds Hybrids to Fleet
28 January 2007
The Yellow Cab company in Lincoln, Nebraska, is adding six Prius hybrids to its fleet. Trading up older cabs which require more maintenance to the fuel-efficient hybrids just made economic sense, according to one of the co-owners.
The older vehicles averaged 10 to 20 mpg, with some logging 100,000 miles a year. The new additions to the 35-car fleet are getting closer to 40 mpg.
