There are two different taxi sedans in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]]; one built by [[Declasse]], based on the [[Merit]], which is the [[:wp:Chevrolet Impala|2000-2005 Chevrolet Impala]], and the other built by [[Vapid]], based on the [[Vapid Fleet Sedan|Fleet Sedan]], influenced strongly by the [[:wp:Ford Crown Victoria#First generation (1992–1997)|1992–1997 Ford Crown Victoria P72]], with frontal design cues more similar to a [[:wp:Ford Crown Victoria#Second generation (1998–present)|1998–2011 model]]. | There are two different taxi sedans in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]]; one built by [[Declasse]], based on the [[Merit]], which is the [[:wp:Chevrolet Impala|2000-2005 Chevrolet Impala]], and the other built by [[Vapid]], based on the [[Vapid Fleet Sedan|Fleet Sedan]], influenced strongly by the [[:wp:Ford Crown Victoria#First generation (1992–1997)|1992–1997 Ford Crown Victoria P72]], with frontal design cues more similar to a [[:wp:Ford Crown Victoria#Second generation (1998–present)|1998–2011 model]]. | ||

Players can enter Taxis in GTA IV and [[Taxi Rides|take taxi rides]] to destinations, which is often a quicker alternative to driving themselves. Warning: in ''[[The Ballad of Gay Tony]]'', using a taxi during missions will often result in the completion challenges for that mission being voided due to being able to bypass the time limit using one. | Players can enter Taxis in GTA IV and [[Taxi Rides|take taxi rides]] to destinations, which is often a quicker alternative to driving themselves.

The GTA III rendition of the Taxi possesses almost identical handling properties to that of the [[Kuruma]]. However, the Taxi does not suffer from the stiff suspension and heavy kerb weight the Kuruma has. | The GTA III rendition of the Taxi possesses almost identical handling properties to that of the [[Kuruma]].

The [[Declasse]] [[Merit]]-based taxi in GTA IV is powered by a V6, coupled to a 5 speed gearbox in a RWD layout. Acceleration is very good, and the top speed is above average (140 km/h or 87 mph). The brakes have been upgraded over the regular Merit, requiring a shorter stopping distance. The suspension has also had an upgrade, making this vehicle corner more effectively at speed. Crash deformation is acceptable, and the cab can survive a few frontal hits before failing. | The [[Declasse]] [[Merit]]-based taxi in GTA IV is powered by a V6, coupled to a 5 speed gearbox in a RWD layout.
