O GAUGE OXFORD DIECAST 1:43
1:43 43TX5001 TX5 LONDON TAXI BLACK CAB
Brand New Item
Electric vehicles are cementing themselves as the way forward in this age of environmental awareness, particularly in the public sector and our newly tooled Electric Taxi reflects the trend. The new LEVC TX purpose built hackney carriage – London taxi to you and me – has been built by the London EV Company in Coventry and is a plug-in hybrid designed to comply with London Transport’s regulations which came into force at the beginning of this year. This legislation bans all new taxis being diesel powered and institutes a zero-emissions policy. Production of the new LEVC TX started in 2017 and it is fitted with a 33 kWh lithium ion 400v battery to power a 110 kW electric motor. It drives in full electric mode all the time but is recharged by an 81 hp Volvo 1.5 litre turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine. The charge connectors are mounted on either side of the radiator grille.
Oxfords detailed model in 1:43 scale is decorated in the traditional black, registered KF17 CNU. Bearing the LEVC insignia across the boor, all other external decoration is finished in silver.
