MONTREAL, June 8, 2016 /CNW Telbec/ - Téo Taxi is announcing the arrival of its brand new taxi service for Montréal–Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport users. Effective as of noon today, it features a fleet of ten Tesla vehicles whose sole purpose is to ferry users to and from the airport. Cabs can be ordered through the Téo Taxi mobile app available on both Google Play and the App Store.

Téo's service rates are based on standard rates of the Commission des transports du Québec. The drop-off zone is located at Gate 6 on the departure level. An information kiosk can be found nearby—the Téo Taxi logo should be easy to spot. Company representatives are on hand to answer any questions users may have.

"Téo Taxi is stepping up its growth," noted Marc Petit, CEO of Taxelco. "In recent months, we've expanded our service area, integrated advertising domes, and added new vehicles to our fleet. We've also made service available 24/7. By launching this new service, Téo Taxi is taking a big step toward becoming a major industry player."

We invite Téo Taxi users to update their mobile apps via Google Play or the App Store so they can take advantage of this new service right away.

"We are pleased that Téo Taxi is now available at Montréal–Trudeau," said James C. Cherry, President and Chief Executive Officer of Aéroports de Montréal. "This application-based service using a totally electric taxi fleet will contribute to innovating customer service and to reducing GHG emissions." He added: "The service will be available at Montréal–Trudeau until the end of the pilot project authorized by the Quebec transport department in November 2017."
