The new LEVC TX purpose built hackney carriage – London taxi to you and me – has been built by the London EV Company in Coventry came into force at the beginning of this year. This legislation bans all new taxis being diesel powered and institutes a zero-emissions policy. Production of the new LEVC TX started in 2017 and it is fitted with a 31 kWh lithium ion 400v battery to power a 120 kW / 160bnp electric motor.  It drives in full electric mode all the time generating charge at 60kW / 80bhp Volvo 1.5 litre turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine. The charge connectors are mounted on either side of the radiator grille.

Our detailed model in 1:43 scale is decorated in the traditional black, registered KF17 CNU. Bearing the LEVC insignia across the boor, all other external decoration is finished in silver.
