Project overview

The project “ID-Taxi” (formerly working title “iTaxi”) is based on an innovative electric car (ID-Taxi), which is designed to address all of today and future requirements of the VIP-shuttle and taxi markets globally. It is based on the project “ZEOS”, which was founded by our team in 2006 and was further developed since then. The requirements, for which the ID-taxi was consequently designed, are the following:

Environment friendliness
- "green"
- Fully electric
- No emission
- No Smog
Surrounding friendliness
- Suited for the cities of the 21st century
- Low noise
- No pollution
Ultimate comfort
- Electric door
- Extended safety
- VIP interior
- Panoramic view from all seats
Interior variability
- For taxis
- For business
- For VIPs
Radical innovative
- 100% Carbon Composite
- 100% electric drive
- Curved panoramic wind-screen
- Superior open space

Step 1 of the project (since 2013) is the building of 2 fully functional prototypes:

Prototype 1
- Designed as a VIP shuttle with VIP interior, 2 single back seats, etc.
- First drive test was in December 2014
- Finishing was in March 2015
Prototype 2
- Built as a technical prototype with taxi-configuration (seating bench, etc.)
- Finishing is planned early 2016

Both prototypes share the same specifications:

Body and chassis (full monocoque) 100% out of Carbon Composite in “one-shot” technology
Body consisting of only 11 individual parts
100% electrically powered with a range of up to 400 km
Fast exchange system for the battery (located in the middle below the floor)
Unique panoramic curved wind-screen with no columns or other obstacles for the driver’s view
Fully-electric, adjustable 2-part gull-wing door allowing easy access
Flat interior floor and spacious open interior

In the actual phase 1 of the project (phase 2 will start in the middle of 2016) the following goals will be achieved:

Complete virtual engineering of the car and all of its components
Complete documentation including part lists, weight lists, assembly instructions, etc.
Access to RTM-robot-technology including production parameters and -programs for the Carbon parts in “one-shot” technology
High quality molds for a small batch series of up to 100 cars
Detailed plans, designs, constructions and calculations for a mass production of 6.000 or 50.000 cars per year

ID-Taxi: Local transportation in its environmentally and surrounding friendliest but also most variable and comfortable way. Join the taxi-project of the future – ID-Taxi!
