Nissan wins $1-billion NYC taxi contract
« on: May 03, 2011, 02:58:22 pm »
Japan’s Nissan Motor Co Ltd. has won New York’s 10-year contract to build the next generation of taxis for the city, Mayor Michael Bloomberg said on Tuesday.

Turkish manufacturer Karsan Otomotiv and Ford Motor Co were the other two finalists in bids for the contract.

Nissan’s winning design in “The Taxi of Tomorrow” competition was a van based on its NV200 minivan, Bloomberg said.
