On Cue with Auto E7™

27/08/2012

Even the unusually wet summer weather couldn't dampen the mood of Glasgow taxi driver, Billy Cusack, as became the first cabbie in the city to get behind the wheel of the new automatic E7™ taxi. 

Billy enthuses: “I love automatic vehicles so, when I heard Cab Direct's E7™ taxi was now available as an auto, I made sure I was first in the queue. 

E7 Taxi Goes Automatic

Billy believes his auto E7™ cab will be a hot topic of conversation with colleagues.  He explains: “The E7™ taxi is already very popular in Glasgow. You can’t go far without seeing one around the city and as soon as the boys have a try of my auto model I’m sure they’ll be making enquiries to Cab Direct.”

The quality of the automatic gear change mightily impresses Billy: “I read in the promotional material that the “gear change is so smooth you’ll scarcely know you’ve changed gear” – and it’s true! Having driven automatic vehicles all my adult life, I couldn’t believe how smooth the gears are - it’s unbelievable”.

Economical

The new automatic E7 returns an impressive 37.1mpg on the combined cycle, perfect during the economic climate the country is currently experiencing.

Billy says: “Diesel costs are a worry at the moment for all drivers in the taxi trade.

“I’m sure the auto E7™ will fit the bill with such an impressive mpg figure.”

The auto E7™ engine also returns an increased 163 brake horsepower. Touch the accelerator and the HDi engine responds instantly and eagerly. Take your foot off the pedal and E7™ decelerates with perfect poise.

The Automatic Choice

Billy notes that comfort was one of the main reasons for choosing the auto E7™.

“Based in Glasgow city centre, I work long hours and it's often start-stop in busy traffic so choosing the auto E7™ was a no-brainer for me.

"The E7™ cab already has a fantastic reputation as being incredibly comfortable, even after a tiring 12 hour shift and the automatic gearbox makes life that much easier”.

• An astonishing 61% more powerful than a TX4
• A money saver as it uses 22% less fuel than a TX4
• At least £6,000 less expensive than a TX4
