LTI

Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
LTI, or London Taxis International, is best known for building purpose-made London black cabs rather than ordinary family cars. Its taxis—including the familiar TX models—were designed for city work, with a roomy cabin, easy access for passengers and a tight turning circle for busy streets. In the UK used-vehicle market, LTI is a specialist name: you’re most likely to find its vehicles listed as taxis or commercial vehicles, often with a history of intensive use.
LTI stands out for its long connection with London’s distinctive taxi design and its focus on practical passenger transport. Compared with van-based taxi conversions, an LTI cab was built specifically for taxi duties; it’s known for carrying passengers comfortably and coping with demanding urban work. The business later became London Taxi Company and then LEVC, so LTI models are part of a wider story of British taxi manufacturing. If you’re considering a used LTI, check its service and usage history carefully, as condition can vary greatly between high-mileage working cabs.
