DUBAI: Cars Taxi, a major private taxi company, conducted a study on the first fleet of 29 Toyota Hybrid Camry and saw a substantial 31% reduction in fuel savings per car over a period of 13 months, where the average hybrid vehicle saved around AED 1,200 per month in fuel cost. Over a period of 4 years, the study found that total savings per vehicle would exceed AED 55,000. “Our initial fleet of 29 Hybrid Camry vehicles has saved more than 278,916 litres of fuel over a period of 13 months, saving approximately 47g per kilometer in CO2 emission in the process, a significant benefit to the UAE environment. For us, the cost savings are substantial, with over AED 500,000 in fuel cost savings per year. This definitely makes the Hybrid Camry our preferred fleet choice across the UAE, offering not only considerable reduction in fuel, but also helping to meet decreased emissions requirements,” said Abdullah Sultan Al Sabbagh, CEO at Cars Taxi Group. Al Sabbagh was speaking on Monday June 15th when Cars Taxi received an additional 55 Toyota Hybrid Camry from Al-Futtaim Motors, exclusive distributor of Toyota in the UAE. n September last year, Al-Futtaim Motors and Cars Taxi group signed an agreement that saw Cars Taxi introduce Hybrid Camry vehicles to the nation’s capital, the first time such technology has been used in the capital, as part of Cars Taxi’s expansion plans for their hybrid fleet.
