Kolkata-Yellow Ambassador Taxis
Taxi drivers perform puja on a Yakow Ambassador Taxi on Vishwakarma Puja in Kolkata, India, on September 17, 2024. The maker of India's Ambassador car suspends production, citing debt and lack of demand for the iconic vehicle which comes to define the country's political class, a company official says on May 24, 2014. Hindustan Motors, India's oldest car maker, shuts down its factory at Uttarpara in West Bengal state, where it has been making the Ambassador -- based on Britain's long-defunct Morris Oxford -- since 1957.
