295 Chrysler Voyagers held TLC licenses on October 12, 2026: 290 for-hire vehicles (FHVs) and 5 yellow taxis. Most are wheelchair accessible vehicles (WAVs): 244 FHV Voyagers are marked WAV, the fourth highest count of any model.
The Voyager matters because it is one of the few approved routes to new FHV plates. TLC's approved list has four Voyager/Pacifica conversion entries from three modifiers, some running to model year 2027.
Counting method
TLC's FHV list and medallion list contain VINs but not models. TLC Help decoded them with NHTSA's vPIC decoder. vPIC names the Voyager and the Chrysler Pacifica as separate models, even though TLC's approved list groups them; Pacificas are not in these counts. WAV status comes from the FHV list itself; the medallion list doesn't record it.
Model years 2020 to 2023
The TLC Voyager fleet is packed into four years: 18 from 2020, 85 from 2021, 135 from 2022 and 56 from 2023. Then it stops, with a single 2024 van. The EPA's listings show a Voyager for 2024, 2025 and 2026, so the gap is not because the model ended. The data can't say why owners stopped choosing it; the approved list includes other accessible minivans such as the Toyota Sienna Hybrid (2021–2026) and Honda Odyssey (2019–2027).
The 5 Voyager taxis are model years 2021 and 2023.
Approved Voyager/Pacifica conversions
From TLC's approved accessible vehicle list, revised October 2, 2026:
A separate line covers the Chrysler Pacifica Hybrid rear entry, 2017–2020, TLC Yellow Taxi Conversion by Revability. Since July 20, 2024, an FHV WAV must be on this list (TLC). Check both the year and the modifier before you buy: a 2024 Voyager is covered only by the BraunAbility programs and the FR Conversions taxi conversion, not by TransitWorks.
New FHV licenses are only issued for accessible vehicles, and that license stays WAV-only for any future replacement (TLC). Step by step: get a new FHV license with a WAV. For yellow taxis, every hack-up since October 18, 2024 must be accessible (TLC hack-up page).
Before you buy a used Voyager WAV
Write down three things from the seller: the model year, whether the ramp is at the rear or the side, and the company that did the conversion. All three must match one line of the list above. TLC's FHV license page also warns that TLC may ask for documents from the up-fitter or modifier at any stage of licensing, so get the conversion paperwork with the van. A Voyager without an approved conversion is just a regular minivan and cannot get new plates.
Money and dispatch
TLC states it offers no financial incentives for FHV WAVs and that WAV trips cannot be charged more (FHV accessibility FAQ). Bases have their own WAV trip requirements: see the base WAV trip mandate and WAV driver pay.
Fuel and bases
All Voyagers decode as gas. The EPA rates the 2022 Voyager (3.6-liter V6) at 22 mpg combined on regular gas (EPA); a wheelchair conversion is not part of that test.
285 are at black car bases, 5 are yellow taxis, 4 at livery bases and 1 at a luxury limousine base.
The Mercedes-Benz Metris has almost the same count but is older, and no Metris newer than 2023 is approved. See approved wheelchair accessible vehicles, TLC vehicle inspection, TLC vehicle retirement age and TLC fleet by make and model.

Data on this page
Aggregates of public data. They describe trips and vehicles, never individual people.
TLC's vehicle lists have no make/model column, so TLC Help decoded the VIN of every licensed vehicle with NHTSA's vPIC decoder (one representative VIN per manufacturer + model-descriptor + model-year pattern) and published only counts. 5 of 115,081 vehicles (0%) could not be decoded to a model and are left out. vPIC sometimes reports trim-family names (e.g. 'RX' not 'RX 350h'); powertrain comes from vPIC's electrification/fuel fields and may misclassify a few model years. Snapshot lists change daily.
