North America's Highest Mileage Hybrid Taxis
Consumers often have concerns about new vehicle technologies, especially about features that may be costly to repair, such as a hybrid system. Canada’s highest mileage Prius, a 2001 model, has operated for over 366,182 kilometres with only a few maintenance repair issues. Jatinder Parhar, owner of a Empress Taxi in Victoria, British Columbia, operates this vehicle.
North America's first hybrid taxi was a 2001 Toyota Prius operated by Andrew Grant in Vancouver, British Columbia. Grant's 2001 Yellow Taxi Prius travelled over 332,000 km before it was replaced with a 2003 Prius. Grant now operates a 2004 Prius Taxi. View the 2001 and 2004 Yellow Taxi Prius’ detailed service and maintenance records.
