U.K. startup Cab 4 One is taking the driver out of the equation with its new [taxi service](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uber-and-weride). Cab 4 One offers up the Smart Four Two Passion Cdi for travelers looking for a ride to and from their hotels.

[Smart Cars are incredibly tiny](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-bagnole-electric-utv), meaning that there is only room enough for one passenger and their luggage. On the flip side, Smart Cars are also incredibly fuel-efficient, getting as much as 85 mpg using conventional fuel. Cab 4 One also offers a [bike rescue service](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bike-car-hybrid) designed to pick up stranded cyclists.

Cab 4 One was created to help green up the taxi industry. Cab 4 One smartly noticed that a lot of big gas-hogging sedans were being used to ferry around only one or two passengers at a time. Why not let people drive themselves and help out the environment at the same time? Currently, Cab 4 One is only available to travelers in the U.K. with no announced plans of expansion.
