Around a quarter of Hamburg's taxis run purely electric.
Around a quarter of Hamburg's taxis run purely electric. The share stood at 26.4 percent in April, according to a reply from the Senate to a parliamentary question by the SPD parliamentary group. Since 2020, the number of electric taxis has, according to the figures, risen year after year.
The Hamburg Parliament member and transport policy expert Ole Thorben Buschhüter (SPD), who had submitted the inquiry, said: “Hamburg shows how the transition to climate-friendly mobility can be achieved in practice.”
The Hamburg Climate Protection Act stipulates that, from 2025 onward, companies may operate only taxis and rental cars that are considered locally emission-free. These are cars that, during operation, do not emit carbon dioxide, among other things. For large-capacity taxis, the rule applies from 2027 onward.
Up to €5,000 E-Taxi Subsidy
Since the rule has been in effect, the number of e-taxis has risen from 685 to 747. The share of e-taxis among all taxis increased by around four percentage points to 26.4 percent, according to the figures. The city financially supports the switch to electromobility: Taxi companies receive €5,000 for switching a conventional taxi.
The opposition CDU faction had criticized the gradual E-taxi obligation in the past. The transport policy spokesman Philipp Heißner argued that the Senate should also permit hybrid taxis. After all, the Climate Protection Act does not allow the commissioning of new hybrid taxis.
