Your business model if using EV's sounds like the half payload EV truck posted in the truck thread, you need 2 of them the cover the same load needed as one ICE vehicle.
Just doesn't make any sense business wise.
I think the AU was the last dedicated Falcon taxi pack, vinyl seats, imagine if you specced with the column shift bench seat setup

Maybe put that business case in with my hypothetical coupe utility/panelvan and spring the taxi off the van with extra doors/rear seats. Raised roof will help with cargo & also backpackers.
