Electric Taxi Service in Hawke's Bay

Electric Executive operates Hawke's Bay's only fully electric executive taxi fleet, serving Hawke's Bay Airport, Napier, Hastings and Havelock North with Mercedes-Benz eVito and Sprinter vans and the BYD Atto 3. Every journey is zero tailpipe emission, pre-booked, and driven by a professional local chauffeur. The business is Qualmark Silver certified, the official Air New Zealand taxi partner for Hawke's Bay, and holds an audited greenhouse gas inventory with local offsetting through Hōhepa Hawke's Bay.

The fleet

  • Mercedes-Benz eVito: 7 guests, row seating of 1, 3 and 3, large boot.
  • Mercedes-Benz Sprinter: 11 guests, individual leather reclining seats, room for 11 suitcases.
  • BYD Atto 3 Long Range: 3 guests, 60 kWh battery, approximately 480 km city range, full glass roof.

Where we operate

Hawke's Bay Airport, Napier (including Ahuriri and Marine Parade), Taradale, Clive, Haumoana, Te Awanga, Cape Kidnappers, Hastings, Havelock North and the Tuki Tuki valley. Longer transfers to Taupō, Gisborne, Palmerston North and Wellington are available by arrangement.

Range and reliability

Guests sometimes ask what happens if an electric taxi runs out of charge. Every vehicle starts each day on a full charge, and the longest Hawke's Bay transfer uses a fraction of available range. The BYD Atto 3 has reached Cambridge, Waikato, on a single charge.

How to book

Book online at elecexec.co.nz, phone +64 6 211 2600, or email info@elecexec.co.nz. Pre-booking is recommended; same-day daytime bookings are accepted by phone subject to availability. Electric Executive taxis are accredited for the Hawke's Bay Airport taxi lane but meet booked guests in the arrivals hall rather than waiting on the rank.
