Elantra Drivers make una answer me na...@dru23 come and answer for your fleet now oh...

Honestly I don't know my brother.. My drivers are not complaining at all . They love the car, but bottom line is that the fuel difference is not much compare to the corolla. The elantra fuel will not break the bank.. If you want to get one please do.just make you get a good one that is not abused and no sludge in the engine.. Take care of the car and the car will take care of you. Use good engine oil.. Hope this helps

Waiting for Dru23, Gazzuzz and Carshopper to reply.

If they don't, I understand because it's trade secret
.

I believe Chillex8 currently use Corolla, if am not wrong.

Chucsmore is also a Corolla person based on his recent comments.

Toyota Prius in my opinion would be a wrong choice for these business but the expert Gazzuzz was teasing Carshopper sometime ago when someone advert Toyota Prius for sale on these thread. Never know if they finally experiment with the car.

Also whatever you decide, consider the car second hand value if you decide to exit the business.

Would you be able to get good value for the car after use.

Kia product is a No-No for me (ignorant choice), could change my mind tomorrow if I get good fact and evidence that proof underwise.

Cheers

The only trade secret I have so far is USA spec Castrol oil that I use for my elantra.. The oil is safe enough for me for my cars and cheaper. And I won't use USA spec Mobil 1 oil ..too fancy for my elantra and expensive.. Good oil just to expensive for me. USA spec Castrol all the way for me .that is only my trade secret.. Also people are catching up with elantra.. Very good car so far .no major issues with it at all. My drivers are very ok with the car. And also Honda civic is another car that I will focus on as my second choice, especially 05 for taxify usage..

Bro Corolla is d bomb. Nothing else but corolla. Good thinking! Good product !

Wouldn't waste my money on a corolla at all ..elantra is perfect for me.. For now I don't have to worry about people stealing the elantra or stealing parts from it ..am sure it happens to elantras but not at the rate of corollas

Bro, Do you think a relatively new Uber driver with almost zero knowledge of Lagos roads can survive the first month with the use of google maps alone??

Putting to consideration that he might also get help from some polite riders if he is polite enough an the rider is also nice.

It depends on how good you are with google maps.

I was in your shoes and I got by easily, but then again, I have been using Google maps for years, so I virtually know everything there is to know about it.

Me personally can't use corolla.. Too expensive for the business. The elantra has been doing fine for me ,very impressed with elantra so far ,only issue have had with elantra for some reason is the alternator. I have change two so far. And most importantly my drivers are not complaining about the car. Also my second choice is civic Honda. Honda civic 05 very strong and ok . I have an 04 civic and trying to get 05 do that it can qualify for taxify
what works for u might not work for me. But seriously Toyota Corolla makes sense a lot. In GaZZuZ voice “. Every mallam with his own kettle” smiley

cross8701:


This is an abnormally and not the norm. You said that you use 2k to make 20k and then said this is achieved mainly by a lot of Off line trips. This isn't the same for most Toyota Corolla drivers on E- Hailing, your logic is flawed.

Is this a delibrate act to just give out wrong information or you use a corolla which is not made by Toyota? Corolla is approximately 50L so how do you get half tank with 2000? Did you buy fuel for less than 100 naira?

Don't use just 10 bad reviews out of 100 to judge a car o . Am sure corolla too has its own share of negative reviews. My elantras are from 07 to 08. I only had one bad transmission issue, which might be the fault of the driver. And keep in mind these cars are over 100k miles. I had one car that is over 200k miles when I bought it . Till now the engine is still running fine and ok ,upon the use of Nigeria oil that I use on it .the car has been on uber for a year, no transmission issue at .
At the beginning of my cars, major issue was ball joint are not strong, linkage etc this and that. So I started buying from eBay and after that no issues. And also most parts sold in ladipo are very bad. If an elantra can last six months doing uber, I think the car is strong enough for personal use o.
Am team elantra all the way o .the cars are getting expensive and also it's a fierce competitor for the corolla. In the USA elantra is up there with corolla.. First time in Nigeria in years I saw elantras all over the place. For every five corolla on the Nigeria road, I saw three elantras fear catch me small.. So elantra for me, cheaper and safe from vandalism compare to corolla. And aslo I never had issues with A/C ,compressor, from the elantra at all ..bottom line use the rite oil and take care of the car
Since most people believe that corolla are strong.. They tend to over abuse the car a lot. And maintance is usually highly ignore on the car ..

i understand what the dude mean though. If i get the first low fuel warning light and enter petrol station within 10-12km drive/distance, get 2k fuel, the needle points at the middle, showing u got half tank. But then 2k isn't half tank cos when u see the first reserve tank light u should have a minimum of around 10-13 litres cool

Let me put this straight on here, don’t belief everything people tell you. Some people just assume.
A car doesn’t consume fuel according to brand name but engine: There is no how an Hyundai 1.6l engine will consume fuel pass Corolla 1.8l engine.
A Kia cerato 2010 will use 9litres fuel from Ogudu,Lagos to ibadan without AC

this is just a review from a website.do you want me to load reviews from other sites too? even our in-house guru has confirmed,"transmission, transmission". bringing the notice of Elantra transmission ish is not to make the owners feel bad,but to be aware of it's limitations and what to expect. also, would be purchasers would be cautious before purchasing.

So finally, a car that doesn't require synthetic oil.

2010 Kia Cerato according to Olahevan.

The Total 5000 you're using, is it 10w-40 or 20w-50 and how often do you change oil?

Also is that the required engine oil as stated in the car manual.
