Abstract

This paper describes the results of the implementation project “eTaxi in Vienna”. In this project, the technical university of Vienna (TU Wien) and the Austrian Institute of Technology (AIT) researched the effects of switching from conventional taxis to electric taxis in an urban area. It was analysed in detail whether there are differences in driving distances and driving times of electric taxis compared to conventional taxis with an internal combustion engine. As a result, it can be stated that the operation of a taxi fleet with electric vehicles is already possible under today's conditions. The biggest challenges at the moment, however, are not technical barriers, rather a multitude of organisational, regulatory and economic problems.
