Diesels are actually cleaner because the total volume of pollutants
are less, because less fuel is burned. The EU pollution standards are
far more sensible than the US-49 state or California-because they aim
to reduce total CO2 emissions and HC and Co turn into CO2 eventually
anyway.
Propane or natural gas, really, are the cleanest fuels out there, and
it's smart to make cabs run on it. But Diesel would be an improvement
over gas.
In my area the most popular cab is a Lincoln Town Car. The fuel burn
is high but cabbies like the reliability and the purchase price-they
buy used ones cheap, often from old people's estates, or
crash/corpse/flood cars, send them to Maaco, and run'em into the
ground. Usually the converters are punched out.

No, the vast majority are converted Ford Crown Vics.
