An upstart taxi cab company is hoping to launch in Arlington County the nation’s first all-electric fleet of cabs, which would be equipped with backseat iPads and wireless Internet access.
The proposed 40-car fleet from Electric Vehicle Taxicab Company, or EV Taxicabs, would allow passengers to browse the Web, listen to music or get directions to local attractions while they ride. The iPads also would allow riders to pay with a credit card.
