After the excitement over extra large SUVs several years ago, designers have begun developing ideas for more compact vehicles. The Micro Taxi was conceived with a significant statistic in mind that suggests that the vast majority of vehicles are operated with no more than a pair of people inside.
Similarly, cabs often open their doors to singles and couples, reducing the need for all automobiles in the fleet to have four or more available seats. Tigran Lalayan and Maxim Shershnev moved the driver to the center of the conveyance and included just two spots for customers in the rear. The Micro Taxi's arrangement is much smarter with space, making the vehicle smaller and lighter so that it consumers less fuel.
