The last of TransCab's Compressed Natural Gas taxis was scrapped last month, due to limited refuelling stations and poor cost advantages over normal cabs.
TransCab has announced that it will scrap 80 compressed natural gas-powered taxis that have failed Land Transport Authority inspections.
All Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) taxis are required to pass an inspection by tomorrow, this comes after two recent incidents of CNG taxis catching fire.
Four men, including an SCDF Officer who Malay Daily Berita Harian identified as Mr. Eka Putra, 20, were injured in Sunday's incident.
