The New York-based company announced that it will make these EVs into yellow taxis. However, TCL (The NYC Taxi and Limousine Commission) stated that it had voted to stop issuing new for-hire licenses for electric vehicles. 

Aloysee Heredia Jarmoszuk, the chairperson of New York TLC, explained that electric cars are not guaranteed to reduce the increasing road congestions. 

Although this is the case, Jarmoszuk clarified that the aspiring Model Y Taxi could still launch its EV units, as reported by Teslarati.
