Which Wiper Blades Are Best for Taxi Drivers?
Discover everything you need to know about the best wiper blades for your taxi with our handy guide.
With so much choice available, it can be hard to know which wiper blades are right for your taxi. But we’re here to help narrow down the search.
BOSCH
Since 1926, BOSCH has gained a reputation for developing high-quality wiper blades that you can count on. Their range includes Aerotwin, Super Plus, and Retrofit wipers to fit a wide range of vehicles.
All BOSCH wiper blades undergo stringent testing to ensure the best performance. They estimate that their wiper blades remove an average of 8,541 litres of rainwater over their service life.
Aerowiper
For a high-quality, affordable wiper blade, look no further than our own-brand Aerowiper. Awarded a 4.5-star rating by Auto Express, they are easy to fit and offer a clean sweep with no residue left behind.
The aerodynamic design also reduces wind noise so you and your passengers can enjoy a quieter journey.

How often should I change the wiper blades on my taxi?
Your taxi is your main place of work and as such your wiper blades are more than likely subject to a lot of use. The more they are used, the sooner they can become worn out and need replacing. We would recommend replacing your wiper blades every six to twelve months.
But if you notice any of the following signs, it’s better to replace them sooner rather than later:
- Streaking
- Smearing
- Chattering
- Juddering
- Squeaking
- Visible damage
What are the benefits of regular taxi maintenance?
As a taxi driver, the safety of your passengers is your main priority and that’s why regular maintenance is crucial. Also, if your taxi is off the road for any reason, then so is your business.
Regular maintenance helps to spot any potential issues in their tracks, before they become something bigger. It can also help to ensure that your taxi is running efficiently and minimise your running costs.
