For taxis that operate from taxi stands, that shouldn't be a problem. Even if the individual breaks are short, you only need to recharge one trip. According to a Uber driver I asked about this, it's not a major problem for them either: The battery comfortably lasts half a day, and after that, it's lunch time anyways. Or, using your numbers, you'd need to recharge after 5 hours of 6-8 trips per hour. Looking at EV ranges, ranges inside cities are higher (unlike with ICE cars). Combine with lower speeds (i.e. more hours per mile) and more frequent stops, and it means a lot of "range" in terms of hours between recharges.
