December 4th, 2005 11:44 AM #12Guys, meron nang few Innovas na ginawang taxi. Tapos AFAIK, pinagbawal na lang ng Toyota gawing taxi yung whole line-up nila altogether, including the Vios. Gusto kasi nila maging 'prestigious', tapos ang pwede lang gawin na taxi ay yung upcoming Avanza.

December 4th, 2005 12:31 PM #13... Sa tingin ko tama lang na Altis or any other bigger cars ang gawing taxi sa Pinas..
Riding passegers deserve a better car for the amount they pay when riding a taxi.
Like in Europe karamihan nung taxi is Mercedez Benz or in Singapore nakakasakay ka paminsan-minsan sa Chedeng. That's nice(at least for me) kasi can't afford akong bumili nung mga ganung klaseng kotse but since me taxi na ganun... mararanasan ko din kung ano ang pakiramdam na sumakay sa isang "luxury" car.
Just my 2 cents.

Some random thoughts:
*The Innova's I have seen them being used for those "garage service" and no taxis so far. They used the "J" variant.
*Altis "J" taxis, I have seen quite a handful of them on the road. But with the soaring acquisition costs, I doubt if it will ever replace the majority of aging taxi fleets on the road.
*The most common new taxis are the Vios "J" in Silver, Blue or White. I havent seen a "flaxen red" Vios "J" made into a taxi, yet. I have also seen quite a few Vios "E" as taxis also.
*I have seen a Kia Rio being used as a taxi. The Optra is quite suitable for the taxi fleet service also.
*I dont want to see the Ford Focus being used as a taxi, ever! Even if its just their new 1.6L variant.
*In Singapore, they do have quite a number of Mercedes Benz E class being used as taxis. Current model (circa 2002 to present) and previous model (circa 1996 to 2001+) . But the most common taxis they have are the Toyota Crown, which incidentally is the same being used in Japan. The Crown's body is quite dated (early nineties design or even earlier) and as well as the interior which has a manual shifter only.
*The last time I was in Thailand, they Taxis they were using are the Toyota Corona (Excesior and previous model).
