This taxi accepts singing as payment in Finland. It gave us goosebumps that how someone can accept singing as a payment. The electric shuttle will keep driving as long as the passengers keep singing, with each motor fitted with a tablet to let guests choose their favourite song from the back seat. And the driver of the eco-friendly car refuse to accept any cash or card payment, so chilling them with your voice is not a bad idea at all.
The concept was started by clean energy company named Fortum after they sponsored a fleet of electric BMW i3 hatchbacks. Actually, the company wants to show people how comfortable and easy it is to drive and have fun in the electric car. The company says that the only sound to be heard from the car should be of singing. The car runs on electricity so the loudest sound that should be heard is the one (passenger) make, this is what the company thinks.
The car is designed by engineers in such a way that it will impress you when you will sit in this. This is one of the cool taxi which will accept singing as payment in Finland.
The project will start from 6 July, ferrying music fans to and from the Ruisrock festival. The company thinks that the fun idea will help to get more young people to embrace the idea of the electric car.
One of the largest energy providers in the Nordic region, the company is trying to introduce festival-goers to a sustainable way of life in keeping with its focus on smart solutions for the future. Passengers now have the opportunity to experience their own carpool karaoke – popularised by the comedian James Corden’s viral segment where celebrity guests sing in his car – in between enjoying the second-oldest rock festival in Europe.
