LEVC TX Icon Electric Taxi: Performance
Always electrically driven, the Icon is built to deliver a smoother, more efficient drive with zero emissions. Equipped with eCity technology, this allows for increased range to help eliminate 'range anxiety', helping you to get your passengers where they want to go.
The Icon features a Range Extender- a 1.5 litre petrol engine to enable more flexible driving and greater efficiency. The Range-Extender tops up the Drive Battery when required, acting as a power source to help extend the driving range. This provides the Icon with a total flexible range of about 333 miles*, with a pure electric range of 78 miles**.
With three driving modes, the Icon helps you tailor your drive to maximise efficiency, whatever the journey. Pure EV mode uses electric power only to produce a zero-emissions drive, which is great for driving in the city. Smart Mode maximises your battery's charge before activating the range extender, and Save Mode helps to conserve your battery's current level for later use.

LEVC TX Vista Electric Taxi: Performance
All LEVC vehicles utilise eCity technology, which combines an electric powertrain with a 1.5-litre petrol engine (also known as a Range Extender) to enhance your driving range. This includes the TX Vista model. Helping to recharge the Drive Battery while extending the range, driving an LEVC taxi means you won't have to worry about 'range anxiety', as your taxi will get you and your customers wherever they need to go.
As a TX vehicle, Vista offers a pure electric range of 78 miles*, and a total flexible range of 333 miles**, making it perfect for the busy demands of city driving. With three driving modes (Pure EV, Smart and Save), the Vista is an adaptive, intuitive vehicle which can switch between modes to maximise efficient driving.
Pure mode uses only electric power to ensure your vehicle produces zero emissions- ideal for driving around the city. Smart mode is the default driving mode, operating the vehicle as efficiently as possible by depleting the battery appropriately before the range-extender is used, and Save mode activates the range-extender to help conserve the battery's charge for later usage, according to your needs.

New LEVC Taxi FAQs
Who owns LEVC?
LEVC is owned by the Geely Group, which is a leading automotive company based in Hangzhou, China.
What does LEVC stand for?
LEVC stands for the London Electric Vehicle Company.
Is the LEVC TX a petrol or a diesel?
Technically, it's neither. The LEVC TX is a Range Extended Electric Vehicle (REEV), consisting of an electric battery and motor, and a small petrol engine.
Is the LEVC TX taxi fully electric?
No - the LEVC TX taxi is not fully electric due to the range extender inside. This acts as a reserve to help maintain the battery level, kicking in once this starts to deplete. The TX is therefore classed as a form of hybrid vehicle, and although it always electrically driven it is not fully electric.
When was LEVC founded?
LEVC began in 1908 with taxi dealers JJ Mann and Tom Overton, who started importing vehicles to Britain exclusively for the taxi trade. The duo designed a special cab in response to new Conditions of Fitness regulations, which soon became the most popular cab in the city at the time.
Where is the LEVC TX manufactured?
The LEVC TX is made at the company's Ansty factory in Coventry, UK. In March 2023, the facility celebrated achieving a major milestone of producing 10,000 vehicles.
