Giugiaro signs an electric taxi for the mobility of the future

Samuele Prosino

The car is based on ‘Anna’, a platform based on a modular architecture that allows for different vehicle configurations.

Etioca Holding, an international company based in Gibraltar, has presented a new electric car, called Miner. It is a multi-service electric taxi, with a futuristic design developed by none other than Giorgetto and Fabrizio Giugiaro. The company, which among other things has recently acquired the Turin body shop Coggiola, proposes itself as a new interlocutor for a new generation of taxi driver entrepreneurs who no longer have to buy the car, but get it in use at a cost of 0.99 euro cents. per kilometer.

“I joined the project that I believe to be extraordinary and revolutionary - said Giorgetto Giugiaro - as early as 1976 I had tackled the issue of a new taxi for New York that remained in the prototype phase. I am happy with Fabrizio to contribute today to the development of this concept integrated into a global ecosystem “. The car is based on Anna, a platform based on a modular architecture that allows different vehicle configurations (for example, work vehicles, school shuttle, emergency vehicles, security and defense vehicles).

The electric vehicle has seven modular seats, plus one for the disabled thanks to an automatic lifting platform. Features space to carry bulky items such as bicycles or skis / snowboards. The driver’s seat is isolated, and the design is certainly futuristic.

The Etioca ecosystem consists of a series of services: access to electric charging stations (battery swap), car wash stations, on-board food and drink sales, after-sales assistance, dedicated application for booking travel, LED screens for project advertising campaigns or institutional messages. But, and here the name plays, the car is also connected to Fintech: it has a DLT license that allows, among the various financial services, the cryptocurrency mining process. The Etioca currency is generated by every real kilometer traveled on the road.

So let’s talk about objectives: according to the company, the first 10,000 taxis will be in circulation by the end of 2024. Annual production in 2025 is expected to be 45,000 units, expecting to reach 100,000 units per year in 2027 with an initial investment of $ 400 million to reach $ 1.2 billion over the next 3 years. 90,000 pre-orders are under discussion (with a deposit of 100 euros) in Italy, Israel, Latvia. To speed up production times, an agreement with an Italian strategic partner for the use of a production plant is at an advanced stage of negotiation.
