伦敦的黑出租车在20年内面临灭绝 因为数量减少和成本上升 London's black cabs face extinction within 20 years due to declining numbers and rising costs.

根据伦敦中心的报告, 由于2013年以来持牌出租车下降34.5%, 伦敦的标志性黑色出租车可能在20年内消失。 London's iconic black cabs could disappear within 20 years due to a 34.5% decline in licensed cabs since 2013, according to a Centre for London report. 这一下降是由于电动计程车成本上升、政府支持减少以及Uber等私营租赁服务的竞争。 This decline is attributed to rising costs for electric cabs, reduced government support, and competition from private hire services like Uber. 报告建议改革知识测试,向新司机提供无息贷款,以拯救传统出租车。 The report recommends reforming the Knowledge test and offering interest-free loans to new drivers to save the traditional taxis.
