Trancit Connect Taxi concept driver's seat

The Transit Connect Taxi concept includes an LCD with fare information, plus a screen in back showing local news and weather, just like in actual New York cabs. Although the examples brought to the New York auto show have manual transmissions, Ford will only offer them with automatic transmissions when they come to the U.S. in summer of 2009.
