The Airport Cabs in Brussels are mostly Merc E, C Class or VW Passat. These care have yellow board on the grill which says, "Zaventem"

See a lot of Citroen Xsara Picassos in the City. Other cars would be Toyota Corolla/Avensis, Skoda Octavia, VW Jetta.

ALL DIESEL. These people love diesels!

All the old Toyota crown's are being replaced by Hyundai Sonata's or Kia optimas. Both are the same. These cars come with 2L CRDi engines and H-matic transmission.

Here's a small list of taxi's in amsterdam,

Chrysler 300C, Audi A6, BMW 5, merc E and any car in that segment.

In taiwan mostly the cabs are Nissan Cefiro/Teana, Toyota camry, toyota corolla, honda civic.

The best was when I got a Civic Type R cabbie with 18" alloys, full body kit and neons.

Toyota Sienna is not available as a Hybrid. Malibu is just a mild hybrid with stop-start alternator.
New York Mayor wants a 100% Hybrid fleet.

Ah i can remember the night outside Leidseplein choosing what taxi to back home in after missing the last tram back home.

@Vid what was that minivan (six seaters) that would ocme once in a while. Those were pretty common as well for taking home bigger gangs of friends.

I would like to add that you can get an S class as a call taxi if you opt for its higher price.
