As part of their ongoing dedication to becoming a key partner in the local transport needs of the UAE, Advantage Taxi has already begun to take delivery of 350 Chevrolet Epicas and 20 Chevrolet Uplanders, with more to follow.

"Chevrolet has a heritage stretching back more than eight decades in the Middle East and today is GM's foundation brand, boasting the widest line-up of vehicles in the Middle East," says Muneer Alhasan, regional fleet manager - General Motors. "It is testament to Advantage Taxi's commitment to providing their customers with the best service possible that they have chosen to build their fleet with vehicles that truly stand out in their respective segments."

The Epica is particularly well suited to being a fleet vehicle, combining luxurious, sophisticated interior and exterior design with an impressive power train and affordable price tag. Adding to Epica's unrivalled comfort is an impressive list of standard equipment including air conditioning, power windows and door locks as well as AM/FM four-speaker stereo with cassette player.

Complementing the main body of the new Advantage Taxi fleet, the Chevrolet Uplander will service Advantage Taxi's dedicated airport limo service. Offering passengers the bold styling of an SUV with the interior passenger room and versatility of a van as well as the efficiency and handling of a sedan, the Uplander boasts interior features including an innovative overhead rail storage system and a large, flexible rear convenience center and cargo system.

"As an official dealer for Chevrolet in the UAE, we have found the cars highly reliable, powerful and easy to maintain," said Eqbal Yousuf Habib Al Yousuf, President & CEO, Al Yousuf LLC, parent company of Advantage Taxi, "We are confident that the extensive Chevrolet line-up will provide us with all the options we need to offer our customers the comfort and convenience that are the hallmarks of Al Yousuf LLC."
