Prius and Mariner For Livery - Greener Taxi and Limo Choices
Why are livery fleets, the largest class of public vehicles on city streets, comprised mostly of large, inefficient, gas-guzzling beasts? That is changing.
<P>
Eco-friendly taxi and limo services are springing up. More than 300 hybrid taxis have gone into service in New York and San Francisco since late 2005.
<P>
All-hybrid airport car service PlanetTran has West Coast operations in San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose Airports.

<h2>New Hybrid Choices: The Mariner for Livery</h2>
New choices are entering the hybrid vehicle market. At the fall 2007 livery industry convention, an environmentally friendly hybrid engine makes the livery-packaged Mercury Mariner capable of getting 34 miles a gallon in the city, easily triple the mileage of a maxed-out Hummer.
<P>
The Mariner is the first manufacturer-sponsored hybrid made specifically for livery service.
