Khan continues, promising Londoners "to repay the trust you've placed in me" and deliver a "fairer, safer and greener" city. The Birmingham part of the West Midlands result has been declared.
He says the last few months have been difficult, facing "non-stop negativity". Labour's candidate Richard Parker came out on top with 80,251 votes.
Khan says his campaign has "answered fear-mongering with facts", and countered attempts to divide with efforts to unite. The Conservatives came in second, with candidate Andy Street - currently the West Midlands mayor - winning 66,296 votes.
Independent Akhmed Yakoob came next, with 42,923.
As a reminder, Birmingham is one of the seven areas that make up the West Midlands electoral region.
