Montreal already has one of the biggest fleets of electric taxis in operation today as a local startup, Taxelco, is consolidating the taxi industry in the city and transitioning the fleet to electric cars.
They started the Uber-like all-electric taxi service Téo Taxi with 60 cars (Teslas, Kia Soul EVs, and more) in 2016 and kept adding cars over the last 2 years – now resulting in a current fleet of 110 all-electric vehicles.
This week, the company announced another expansion that will lead to a fleet of 350 all-electric vehicles operating in Montreal, as well as an electric delivery service and even electric trucking.
