A combined fleet of 100 electric taxis will patrol the streets of Mexico City soon, and three of them have recently been delivered to the local government. Jose Munoz, Nissan Mexicana President and General Manager, delivered the first three Nissan LEAF vehicles to Marcelo Ebrard, Mexico City Mayor.
The 100 EV in question are only the pilot program, with the final goal being to reach 500. General Electric has also fitted a new charging station in the historic area of downtown Mexico City to service the trio of cars

With Nissan LEAF, this era of zero-emission mobility becomes a reality," said Jose Munoz, President and General Manager of Nissan Mexicana.
