BYD as Grand Prize: Bonn-based taxi operator wins raffle at the European Taxi Trade Fair 2026
The tombola is part of the European taxi trade fair, just like taximeters and roof signs. But this year the prize draw ran differently from usual: No small prizes were awarded, the number of prizes was correspondingly modest. The result: After about an hour it was already decided who would take home the grand prize. Another change affected the participation terms. Originally, proof of entrepreneurial status was required only for applicants for the grand prize. Shortly thereafter, this requirement was extended to all prizes. Whoever was not a taxi entrepreneur and could not present the corresponding documents was thus not allowed to participate in the drawing.
As usual, Dr. Michael Stehr, managing director of the Fachvereinigung Personenverkehr Nordrhein (FPN), conducted the drawing. He was supported by the FPN chairman and freshly elected TMV president Markus Gossmann, the deputy FPN chairman and TMV office head Nico Höttges, and the FPN board members Nicole Wenzel and Armin Schötz. The latter scrutinized the documents of the drawn winners very closely. Only after successful verification was a prize confirmed.
Even without small prizes, there was quite a bit to win. The prizes included fuel vouchers of 50 and 100 euros from Dittmeier and Mobile Garantie, wheelchair retractors for inclusion taxis from AMF Bruns and admission tickets for a Bundesliga match, donated by Signal Iduna. FMS donated two packages, each containing a Samsung smartphone and the book "IQ of Mobility" by managing director Robert Abel. Hale contributed a taxi roof sign and a TSE taximeter. In addition, there was a driving safety training by BG Verkehr and one year of free TSE data storage for ten taxis, donated by Taxiwin/Kosch.
Other prizes included a taxi wrap valued at 2,000 euros from Intax, as well as a VIP Mobility Package from Transform GmbH. It includes a voucher for one week of rental, VAT included, worth up to 5,000 euros.
The actual eye-catcher stood, however, already during the fair in the hall: a BYD Seal 6 DM-i Touring with taxi preparation. BYD Germany and the vehicle retrofitter Die Transform GmbH had the vehicle jointly provided as the grand prize.
The lucky draw ticket belonged to Cihan Demir, a taxi operator from Bonn. After the FPN officials had verified his entrepreneurial status and the required documents, they handed him the prize certificate and a bouquet. Friends, colleagues and journalists congratulated the visibly delighted winner. For Demir, the taxi trade fair thus ended not only with new contacts and impressions, but with an additional vehicle in the fleet.
