Is the London Taxis Int Tx1 Bronze a high-risk car to insure?
The GVRI of 58/100 places the London Taxis Int Tx1 Bronze in the High Risk band, above the UK fleet average of 37/100. Higher GVRI means higher mechanical defect risk from real MOT data, which correlates with claim risk. However, insurance premiums also depend on driver profile, postcode, NCB, annual mileage, and policy type — the GVRI is one indicator, not a premium quote.
How is the Gera Vehicle Risk Index calculated?
GVRI = 0.6 × MOT_fail_rate + 0.4 × avg_defect_severity_norm, min-max scaled 0–100. MOT fail rate = failed tests ÷ total class-4 normal tests. Defect severity = mean severity of 'F' items per failed test (1 = standard failure, 3 = dangerous item). Full methodology on the GVRI methodology page. Source: DVSA 2016 data, OGL v3.0.
