Taxis were introduced to England in the early 17th century, with the first recorded use of horse-drawn hackney carriages in London around 1600. The term "hackney" refers to horses that were hired out for transportation. The modern taxi system, with motorized vehicles, began to evolve in the late 19th century, particularly after the introduction of the first gasoline-powered taxi in 1897.
