LEVC brings accessible EV transport to Cliveden estate

Electric taxi maker LEVC has announced a new partnership with the National Trust to help make access to the historic Cliveden estate easier and greener.

The firm, which recently announced plans to expand into the luxury MPV market, has supplied one of its adapted TX Access cabs to the famous Buckinghamshire visitor attraction to help visitors get around.

The fully wheelchair accessible vehicle is already being used to allow visitors with mobility challenges to explore the site’s 376 acres of gardens and historical landmarks with comfort and ease.

Alex Nan, CEO of LEVC, commented: “Supplying a TX Access to support the accessibility of Cliveden-National Trust is a proud moment for LEVC. The TX Access underlines LEVC’s commitment to providing inclusive mobility solutions for a sustainable future where transportation is accessible to all. We’re honoured to play a part in enhancing the visitor experience; enabling even more people to access the estate with ease.”

Robert Miles, general manager of Cliveden-National Trust, said that guests’ reaction to the new service had been hugely encouraging. He said: “Our collaboration with LEVC to introduce the TX Access taxi service at Cliveden has been a remarkable success, running extremely smoothly from start to finish.

“The TX perfectly complements our commitment to providing an accessible and environmentally conscious experience for all our visitors, and the iconic design of the vehicle sits well with the iconic design of our estate.

“The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, and we’re proud to offer a service that not only meets but exceeds the expectations of our guests, by maximising accessibility and giving more visitors the opportunity to enjoy our stunning estate.”
