Sally X Tesla

One year after New York approved the Tesla Model 3 to enter its fleet of yellow cabs, the first one has hit the streets. Sally introduced the first Model 3 as a part of its growing fleet of EV's.

New York isn't the first city where passengers can hail a battery-powered taxi. Madison-based Green Cab converted its entire fleet to Model 3s this year, and Columbus Yellow Cab in Ohio bought ten of them in 2019. Amsterdam has had Tesla taxis since at least 2014. But it marks a significant milestone in the city's transformation towards more sustainable practices.
