Cab and Taxi

Taxicab VS Cabin

This is the oldest type of rental car for horses and was known as a "taxi" (short for cabriolet). This name was retained when taxi companies switched to motorcycles equipped with a "taximeter" (which measures how far you had gone). They were referred to as "taxis". Today, each of the two words is used. A number of UK taxi operators have reserved the use of the phrase "taxi" for diesel-powered trains with a high rooftop to the cabin (also known as "black cabs") and have used the phrase "minicab" for off-the-shelf car rentals.
