Green Tomato Cars

The way of the world these days, is that more people are starting to be environmentally aware - and making an effort to think green. Whether it be keeping the air-conditioning, lights & car use to a minium, people are becoming more alert to these larger problems around us and making an effort to do their part.

A great deal of us in this industry are especially guilty of over-using taxi's (even for the smallest distances! You know who you are!) and a fantastic company, Green Tomato Cars has come up with a solution - Enviro-Taxi's! Green Tomato Cars house a large fleet of Toyota Prius Hybrid cars which give off just 40% of the carbon emissions made by most LPG Taxi's or standard cars. They charge the smallest amount more than regular cabs and the best part... no waiting charges! You could be stuck at those lights for quite some time and only be charged for the distance travelled.



Green Tomato Cars were the Official Mode Of Transport for this years TV Week Logies.

Check out their website at www.greentomatocabs.com.au and make a booking!

I think green cars should be promoted in replacement of standard cars and LPG powered cars... It's a good thing for me. :)

tried them today = just the best service and I thought it was actually cheaper than my usual cab service - aparently they offset twice their unavoidable emmisssions which makes them climate positive = almost makes taking a green tomato car better than walking!
