INTAX is working on taxi and rental car packages for five additional vehicle models from KGM, Toyota and XPeng. According to the upfitter, the KGM Torres EVX, the KGM Torres Hybrid, the Toyota bZ4X Touring and the XPeng P7+ are already in development. A corresponding package is also planned for the new generation of the Toyota RAV4.

KGM new to the taxi portfolio

With KGM, INTAX is adding the vehicles of the South Korean manufacturer to its taxi portfolio for the first time. The company is initially focusing on two drive variants of the "KGM Torres".

For the all-electric "KGM Torres EVX" a taxi and rental car package is being created. The battery capacity of the vehicle was increased for the current model year. The combined WLTP range, according to INTAX, is more than 500 kilometers.

At the same time, the retrofitter is working on a solution for the "KGM Torres Hybrid". The full hybrid combines a gasoline engine with an electric drive. Both variants of the Torres are already in development.

Toyota bZ4X Touring with up to 591 kilometers of range

The Toyota offering is also to be expanded. INTAX is developing a taxi and rental car package for the all-electric "Toyota bZ4X Touring". The model complements the already known bZ4X and offers more cargo space as well as additional room for passengers and luggage.

The range of the bZ4X Touring, according to INTAX and WLTP, is up to 591 kilometers. Thus the model is among the three fully electric vehicles on the retrofit company's current development list.

New Toyota RAV4 also planned

INTAX is planning another taxi and rental car package for the new generation of the "Toyota RAV4". The vehicle is offered in Europe as a hybrid and plug-in hybrid.

Unlike the ongoing development projects, the adaptation for the RAV4 is to take place on the first customer vehicle. Therefore, INTAX is looking for an operator who wants to use a corresponding model as a taxi or rental car.

XPeng P7+ with 800-volt technology

Following the XPeng G6, INTAX is preparing another model from the Chinese manufacturer for taxi and rental car use with the "XPeng P7+". The fully electric fastback is more than five meters long and features a spacious interior as well as a large luggage compartment.

The equipment includes 800-volt charging technology. The taxi and rental car package for the XPeng P7+ is already in development according to INTAX.

Additional models are being tested

In addition to the five mentioned vehicles, INTAX, according to its own statements, is testing further models and drivetrain variants for their suitability for taxi and rental-car operations. Which additional vehicles will be included in the offering, the company did not disclose.

After completion of the respective development work, further information on the availability and ordering of the new taxi- and rental-car packages will be published. (Source: INTAX)
