Taxi Models in Lhasa
Taxi is the city’s business card, a bright and beautiful city view. The local government is very meticulous in choosing the taxis running in the city. They have appointed Zhonghua Zunchi cars (中华尊驰车) to make up most of the 1160 taxi team in Lhasa.
Made by Shenyang Automotive in China, the “Zhonghua” sedan was designed by Italdesign. The “Zhonghua” sedan is targeted at the mid-priced sedan market, including governmental institutions, businesses and individual users in China.
The “Zhonghua” sedans can also be modified for use as taxis. The sedan models include the 2.0 liter and 2.4 liter manual transmission and the 2.0 liter and 2.4 liter automatic transmission.
