HOPE For Big Hybrids

RIGHT-SIZED: The latest trial run of hybrid taxis in New York City shows the Ford Escapes have succeeded without any major problems, and prove durable enough for back-to-back daily runs. This should be encouraging to the chauffeured transportation industry, since evolving green technologies will make larger hybrid and alt-fuel livery vehicles more possible. With the Cadillac Escalade Hybrid, the Mercedes R320 BlueTec, and the LimoGreen Town Car now on the market, there is never any excuse for compromising size, space, and luxury in order to look green. -- M.R.
