Good question. In the case of a taxi the figures will be very different. You're not doing much taxi driving on 8000 miles a year. I think a lot of cars are rented, I know one driver who does this, the actual owner buys cars and rents them to taxi drivers as a business. It's the kind of use that lends itself to an EV, because fuel is a larger part of your total cost per mile. Another example - I know someone who took a £300 per month lease on a BM W, 8000 miles a year. So £3600 for 8k miles, about 45p a mile fixed lease cost before you start the engine. Fuel about 10p a mile if diesel, 15p if petrol. Then insurance, tax, repairs. Probably 65p a mile all up, of which fuel 15 to 20%. Reduce your fuel costs, big deal. 80%+ is fixed costs. But a taxi on 50k + miles a year, fuel is more like 50% of costs per mile (if diesel). That's worth reducing.
