That's 50 hybrids out of 60,000+ total taxis in Beijing, according to the The UN's Beijing Olympics 2008 environmental review. No wonder this was only the second one I had ever seen in Beijing. I'm convinced they spend most of their time in the taxi ranks at the St. Regis, the Ritz-Carlton, etc. This one must've been slumming as we caught it at the Grand Millenium.
