I recently read a news article saying how the average age of HK taxi drivers is something in the 60+ range, and with a large increase in licence holders being in their 80's compared to a few years before. These old timers are not going to shift away from the tried and true stuff that has served them well for the last 20+ years.

Incidentally, I remember watching a short news clip a few years ago of how the HKSAR gov was pushing for BYD EV taxis, and none of the interviewed taxi drivers who were driving those BYD EV taxis had anything good to say about them LOL~ As I recall, access to charging was their biggest complain, but there were other issues too.
