Chissà se un giorno vedremo nelle strade di Roma, Firenze o Milano passare dei taxi Fiat Multipla elettrici a guida autonoma, possibilmente con il tetto in cristallo per ammirare le bellezze della nostra architettura. Piccole, a misura di centro storico, non servirebbero per i trasferimenti extraurbani verso gli aeroporti ma solo per portare i turisti nei centri cittadini, magari attraversando le ZTL. Stellantis ci pensi sopra.
You might know the Caprese salad or the Capri Sun Juice (that’s not juice) or Ford Capri. No, I’m referring to a niche in the niche, a ‘caprese taxi’ is a custom built convertible taxi that only exists in Capri, Italy. It’s not just a cabriolet, otherwise it would simply be called an ‘open top taxi’. It must have 4 doors, two or three comfortable rows of seats and when the top is open passengers can watch the panorama from a 360 degrees POV. A convertible cab is already cool, a Caprese is top. The base to build a Caprese taxi is always a sedan or a minivan with room for people and luggage of course. To be fairly honest, their design is not exactly the apex of Italian design but the main character in Capri is the view from the car, not the car.
