In a world where taxis are regarded as utilitarian vehicles, meet the Farelady edition, the modern exception.
BRITISH BRAND
A British brand with more than 100 years of history, the London Electric Vehicle Company, formerly known as the London Taxi Company, created with the advanced TX5 model the world’s most instantly recognisable electrically-powered taxi.
Having been commissioned in 2017 by the London Taxi Company to produce the Last of Line edition from the 5 final units of the iconic TX4 taxi to leave the production line, Kahn have since taken on the next generation TX5, upon which the Farelady edition is based.
THE DESIGNER
Afzal Kahn said: “It is always a privilege to work on what is truly one of the most iconic cars in the world. The Last of Line edition was a great success for us, with the vehicles all finding homes with private collectors, and I look forward to embarking on a journey with new clients who wish to possess their own piece of British history in the form of the TX5 taxi.”
“The fully converted TX taxi is priced from £99,000 + VAT and can be ordered in left- or right-hand drive in a choice of colours including black, blue, British racing green, silver and grey. The interior package is also available in a plethora of colours covering the entire spectrum of modern and traditional hues. The restyling has been undertaken in manner respecting the TX5’s design, integrating with and flowing from the styling of the original vehicle”.
LOW EMISSIONS
The vehicle features a super luxurious finish and a classic, understated design while at the same time reducing emissions in cities and delivering substantial savings for Hotels, Clubs and other venues who chauffeur clients in style. Vehicles offered as Petrol Hybrid.
