Electric cabs are the first in Europe and the third worldwide; they make less noise and more importantly, produce minimal pollution compared with petrol vehicles.
Kevin Vermeij, GreenCab's account manager, believes that this initiative will inspire other taxi companies in the Netherlands or even other countries to invest in such a project.
