What is a Red Taxi?

Red Taxis in Traffic

In our country, the taxi color has been determined as yellow. Starting from the 1980s, the color of taxis was changed to canary yellow, becoming the same as worldwide. Taxis, as a private means of transportation, have become and continue to be a frequently used vehicle by people who do not own a car, due to their comfortable and convenient use. In recent years, red taxis have also started to be used in Istanbul. Red taxis, with a color close to burgundy, serve in the remote areas of the city. Red-colored taxis, located in areas outside the borders of the metropolitan municipality, have a slightly more expensive fare than yellow taxis. A certain fee must be paid to obtain or rent a red plate. Those who want to get a plate can visit the address to check current plate prices.
