Gedime Motors Supports Gibraltar’s First Hybrid Taxi Trial
Gedime Motors, part of the Capurro Group, is proud to have supplied Gibraltar’s first hybrid London-style taxi for public trials, in partnership with the Gibraltar Taxi Association.
The vehicle combines electric propulsion with a small petrol engine, providing a more sustainable and efficient alternative to traditional taxis. Fully wheelchair accessible and designed for passenger comfort, the vehicle retains the classic design of the iconic London cab while delivering the benefits of modern hybrid technology.
The trial will help assess the vehicle’s suitability for Gibraltar’s roads and daily taxi use, with the Gibraltar Taxi Association and drivers invited to evaluate its performance. If successful, it could form part of a wider rollout supporting Gibraltar’s transition towards lower-emission transport.
Gedime Motors is pleased to support this important step in local mobility, and remains committed to working with public and private partners to help shape a cleaner, more inclusive transport future for Gibraltar.
We look forward to the outcome of the trial and to continuing to support Gibraltar’s journey towards electrification across the sector.
150 years, and the story is still being written.
We were delighted to sit down with GBC's Talking Business to reflect on a century and a half of trading in Gibraltar. From our beginnings in 1876 to the group we are today, it's a journey built on the people, partners and community who have grown alongside us.
Talking Business shines a light on the ideas and determination driving Gibraltar's economy forward, and we were honoured to share our chapter of it.
Here's to the next 150.

This Saturday marked the start of ‘Our Story’, a campaign celebrating 150 years of Capurro by collecting the stories that have shaped our community.
People stopped by our stall at Piazza throughout the day to share their memories.
What stayed with us most were the stories from different generations, different backgrounds, all woven together by the same threads: togetherness, resilience, celebration, and our unmistakable llanito spirit. Some made us laugh, reflect, and most of all reminded us just how special this community really is.
That is exactly why preserving these moments matters. Every memory shared becomes part of something bigger, a record of who we are and where we have come from.
To everyone who came along and shared a piece of their story, thank you. You made the day.
Keep an eye out for our next activation or visit our website capurro.group/150 for your chance to add your own memory to the timeline and win a charitable donation in your name to a local charity.
We can’t wait to hear from you.
