What if it's 8 people? They can't all fit in the regular E-class. Maybe a GL or R-class.

I'd say at least half of the cabs in Stockholm are E-class Mercedeces.

Old post, but still, now I have gotten my first cab ride in the new E-class. It is a great ride. No, not great. Simply wonderfull. The rear seat is just perfect. You have enough room when wearing a coat and carrying your briefcase. The seats are firm and the leather feels very upscale.

My reference in this respect is the rear seat of the pre-FL S-class and on the bad condition streets of Stockholm, I would be hard pressed to tell any big difference between the two in other respects than the space the occupant of the rear seat has at hand.

The car is very silent inside, I do not care what measurements say, the noice in the cabin is not at all disturbing.

All in all, a great car to be in. I have yet to drive it but I think I have experienced it the best way possible.

Well I might be visiting over there in the next year, so maybe I will get to try these taxi's out for myself.

How much does an average ride cost?
