Cab Direct, part of the Allied Vehicles Group, has officially opened its brand‑new taxi showroom in Coventry, marking an exciting milestone in expanding access to specialist taxis for drivers across the Midlands and beyond. The launch event, held earlier in March, welcomed taxi and private hire drivers to explore a comprehensive range of purpose‑built and wheelchair‑accessible vehicles designed to meet the diverse needs of today’s cab trade.
Located on London Road in Coventry, our new showroom provides drivers and fleet operators with a dedicated space to view, compare, and test vehicles in person. Throughout the launch event, Cab Direct specialists were on hand to walk visitors through vehicle specifications, licensing considerations, and operational requirements. This investment reflects the continued national demand for specialist and wheelchair‑accessible taxis, an area Cab Direct has long led through its engineering expertise and focus on driver and passenger inclusion.
Visitors to the event explored a wide lineup of both new and used taxis, including the Ford MAXiCab, a spacious multi‑seat taxi designed with input from working drivers. The rest of Cab Direct’s full wheelchair‑accessible vehicle range was also available to view, engineered in‑house to meet the latest accessibility standards.
As part of the Allied Vehicles Group, Cab Direct continues to lead the market in specialist taxi manufacturing and supply. The new Coventry showroom strengthens the brand’s on‑the‑ground support for drivers, ensuring better access to vehicles, advice, and aftersales services. The successful launch reflects Allied Vehicles’ ongoing commitment to supporting the taxi trade nationwide with innovative, accessible, and reliable vehicle solutions.
