iChauffeur are delighted to introduce the world’s first luxury hybrid chauffeur driven car. Available as part of the “Eco Chauffeur” service, it will allow environmentally minded individuals and corporations to use a car certified as a Super Ultra Low Emission Vehicle. The Lexus GS 450h SE-L is the world’s first rear wheel drive hybrid. The performance and level of luxury could in no way be described as frugal. This is a full-fat, comfortable vehicle but with the emissions of a more modest family car.
The GS 450h is the first of two Lexus cars coming to iChauffeur in the months ahead, the second being the incredible Lexus LS600h, which will be the flagship of the Lexus range when it becomes available.
iChauffeur Chairman, Andy Senior said, “I am really excited about these new Lexus Hybrids. They are the first vehicles which we have found to have the levels of comfort and luxury that we are known for, but with a carbon footprint of a much smaller and basic vehicle. We are leading the way for others in our industry to follow, and we are sure that our example will give other private hire businesses the momentum to change too, which will benefit all of us.”.

A chauffeur from Croydon was one of two people prosecuted for using illegal disable badges on their cars, reports The Croydon Advertiser. The chauffeur, who does not work for iChauffeur Ltd, was caught parked on a yellow line in Croydon, last August after running in to the bank. He claimed it was the first time he had ever illegally used the badge in the town.
He had bought the fake permit, so that in his job as a chauffeur he could get as close as possible to airport terminal buildings, by parking in disabled bays to pick up his clients.
Magistrates at Croydon Crown Court gave him a conditional discharge for two years and ordered him to pay £556 costs after he pleaded guilty.
