Hangzhou electric taxies pulled off roads
ALL of Hangzhou's 30 electronic taxis stopped operation yesterday after one of them became alight after overheated earlier on that day. The operator of Hangzhou's electronic taxi fleet, Hangzhou New Energy Taxi Company, decided to temporarily pause operation of all e-cabs until an effective solution is put forward.
The taxi caught fire after overheating at around 3 pm yesterday on Wulin Road, Hangzhou. The taxi driver and passengers escaped from the car promptly and called the police. The fire was put out 10 minutes later by firemen. Engineers and officials of Hangzhou New Energy Taxi Company and the manufacturer of electric taxi reached the scene shortly after and started investigation. The cause of the accident, however, is still under investigation.
The electric taxi fleet debuted in Hangzhou in January. The city became one of the first 13 pilot cities in China to develop new energy automobiles in 2009. According to the city's original plan, the number of electric taxies operating in Hangzhou is to be increased to 200 by the end of this year.
