MV-1 handicapped accessible yellow cab at a news conference at the Manhattan Motorcars dealership in New York


The MV-1 handicapped accessible yellow cab is seen at a news conference at the Manhattan Motorcars dealership in New York on Wednesday, May 23, 2012. Manufactured in Mishawaka, IN by VPG (Vehicle Production Group) the cab, available in combustion engine and cng fuel options, is equipped with motorized ramps to assist the wheelchair bound and is over-sized to accommodate the mobility devices as well as providing increased comfort to non-disabled riders. Costing a base of $49,000 for a cng equipped engine the cab will save as much as $70,000 in fuel costs over its 7 year life span. (© Richard B. Levine)
