According to Mehr News Agency, Shadi Maliki, CEO of Tehran Taxi Management and Supervision Organization, referring to the cause of air pollution in the capital city, stated: The existence of specific geographical conditions of Tehran metropolis and the lack of proper exit of pollutants from the city surface are the factors of air pollution. It is considered in the capital.
He added: The presence of more than 10 million motor vehicles in Tehran can affect the air pollution of the capital, and today one of our serious problems is perhaps the excessive number of cars that are traveling in Tehran. Also, the factors affecting air pollution are divided into two categories, fixed sources and mobile sources, which mobile sources contribute 81% in the production of gaseous pollutants, 61% in the production of suspended particles, and about 37% of passenger cars in the production of gaseous pollutants from 81%. The subject is involved.
The Managing Director of the Tehran Taxi Management and Supervision Organization continued: The amount of carbon emissions by a private car is one and a half tons per year with a travel of about 16,000 kilometers, and for taxi cars, this number is several times, for example, 6 to 7 tons. On the other hand, taxis are among the vehicles that travel a lot and have a lot of traffic, so that the share of taxis in public transportation is 18%, which includes three and a half million daily trips out of 20 million trips within the city.

In the Tehran Taxi Management and Supervision Organization, 1,500 cars have been renovated this year from the beginning of the year until today, and this year's applicants Part of For years, good things have happened in the field of renovation, that is, we had an 18% growth.
He emphasized: In the field of renovation, the number of products offered to taxi drivers in the renovation basket has increased from one car to four cars, which can be a great help for taxi drivers to choose better in the field of renovation.

That is, we had a two-fold increase in the price of cars, which has made it difficult to renew the capital's taxi fleet.
The CEO of Tehran City Taxi Management and Supervision Organization said: 1,500 electric taxis have entered the country so far, and the procedures for their clearance have been completed and we are in the stage of determining the financial model. The priority of electrical renovation is by handing it over to the worn-out taxi drivers; In handing over electric taxis after 172 units, charging infrastructure was also created, which has been activated in 17 places of 74 charging nozzles.
The CEO of Tehran Taxi Management and Supervision Organization said: There are 80,000 taxis operating in Tehran, more than half of them are worn out and some others are on the verge of wear and tear.

He added: A taxi car traveling in the city will travel about 200 to 250 kilometers, which will consume about 6 to 7 thousand liters of gasoline per year, and including the government subsidies for the fuel quota that the taxi car receives with gasoline at the price of 1 , 500 tomans or 3 thousand free tomans, approximately equivalent to 130 million tomans, each taxi saves on gasoline consumption.
Maliki stressed: It should be noted that every electric taxi car in the city covers such a distance with a single charge, which is approximately equivalent to 130 million tomans in fuel consumption savings by every taxi in the capital. If we electrify the current 50,000 taxi cars in the city. With a numerical calculation and according to dissatisfaction Gasoline, is the cost of importing gasoline higher or the average dollar price of a car, which is more economical?
