Unless you want to be a driver-partner you'll need a driver

That's my point.i
The major investors should be the drivers .
In London %90 of people own thier taxi or on HP so if u earn N140 k with a driver and yoy cut off the overhead of the driver you can make N200 plus. And you are your own boss.that's going by the assumption the figures put upstairs by OP are anywhere near realistic.u feel me.

nevilbot:


Can't one drive his car himself on uber platform?

Ofcos U can.

Toyota Yaris is best going by the reviews. Mpg and maintenance remains top considerations here.

smartty68:
Is the #2,000,000 for the car alone? or for the registration with Uber?

You don't need money to register with Uber

For a wider coverage and better understanding of the topic, the OP should have give a short explanation of UBER since not all Nigerians who visit Nairalamd are residing in Lagos.

Nice

Just another Toyota Praise singer. Out of thread.

Of course it's best you drive yourself , there are people who have good jobs and need another source of income , getting a driver would be advisable in such a situation. Uber will pair you with a driver and you both can sort out the finer details like how much he's to remit weekly , if he has full access to the car and whatnot. If a partner is giving his driver full access to the car he should find time out to inspect the car at least once a week , with this he can know if the driver is maintaining the car properly. A moderate estimate to be remitted to the partner weekly should be between 35k and 50k ( most do either 40k or 45k ).

And the driver takes care of fuelling and maintenance , wherever remains belong to the driver.

Don't forget your gun, pepper spray, combat knife and electric stun gun

I think the 2005 model acception criteria increases by one year each year...i.e. In 2018, the minimum year model accepted will be 2006. This is the practice mostly in developed countries abroad, is that not the same in Nigeria?

So the model you buy also determine how many years you can use that car on Uber.

Bro once U employ a driver forget it.u just invested in biebie bank

If you have a car you'd like to register with Uber and need a trustworthy pilot, do contact pls

Let's talk. Send me your phone number.

I am interested in investing in this. Anyone with experience please?

Maybe an already existing uber partner based in abuja?

For an Uber partner in Nigeria...what is the standard monetary settlement split between the Driver & the Partner after Uber fees deductions?

I know it varies, I want to know the various model people use as am interested in investing in Uber in Nigeria.

One model/solo I have heard of is: 20:20:60->Uber:Driver:Partner, but the Driver takes care of insurance, maintenance and fuel.

I think Uber might have increased their percentage for New Driver sign on from 20 to 25, I don't know if this is applicable in Nigeria.

Uber is one business that is worth investing in if you’d like to earn ₦140,000 monthly on a ₦2,000,000 investment. The 2 most important factors to succeed in the business are getting a practical car that is in good working condition.. as well as getting a good and trustworthy driver.

Uber accepts 2005 and above four door cars. However, buying a 2007, 2008 or 2009 model is better so the car can repay itself on time whilst having a life span of 3 to 4 years on the Uber platform before they yank if off.

When choosing the most practical car to use, you have to consider the following factors: Purchase cost, fuel economy, good air conditioner, reliability, maintenance cost, life span, resale value etc..

Despite how lucrative the business is, I noticed several cars have been pulling out of the Uber business due to accidents, reliability issues, fuel consumption especially vehicles with 6 cylinder engines etc.

In order to prevent same mistakes, you may want to stick to the following cars..

Best Cars For Uber Business

Toyota Corolla



This is actually the most preferred.. no wonder most companies use them as official cars. The 1.8 litre 4 cylinder engine gives an average of 30 miles per gallon (mpg). The air conditioner is excellent, sound system is good enough and the car makes your passengers arrive like a boss.

With the Corolla, you’ll get good reliability, reasonable space and excellent resale value.

Estimated Price: Tokunbo – N2.8m.. Nigerian used – N1.8m (2009 model)

Toyota Yaris (Sedan)



This car is small but mighty and arguably the best in the Uber line-up. Its 1.5 litre 4 cylinder engine gives you an amazing average fuel consumption of 32 mpg.. That’s about half the consumption of several 6 cylinder engines. Although, acceleration suffers but still good enough for city trips. It is also reliable and maintenance cost is moderate which all add up to increase your earning potentials.

Don’t be deceived by the small exterior.. it is pretty spacious inside. Thanks to the small engine and short bonnet. The small bonnet and the low belt-line makes you feel like you are sitting up high.

Estimated Price: Tokunbo – N2.5m.. Nigerian used – N1.5m (2008 model)

Honda City



The Honda City is less popular but it goes head-to-head with the Yaris in terms of performance. It is reliable and the 1.5 litre 4 cylinder engine promises average fuel consumption of 32 mpg. There is also a 1.3 litre option if you want to settle for that. The 5th generation Honda City which was produced between 2008 and 2013 is more than enough to get the job done.

The Tokunbo is pretty scarce so you’ll probably settle for a Nigerian used..

Estimated Price: Tokunbo – N2.65m.. Nigerian used – N1.35m (2009 model)

Toyota Avensis



Avensis has various engine options: 1.8, 2.0 and camry’s 2.4 litre engine. But I bet you’re sticking with the 1.8 litre engine because transport business is more about the MPGs. You should be getting an average gas mileage of 27 mpg on your 1.8 litre Avensis which is good enough.

It is undoubtedly strong and reliable.. It is also slightly bigger than the Corolla with more premium feel.


Estimated Price: Tokunbo – N3.1m.. Nigerian used – N1.8m (2008 model)

Yes, Camry didn’t make the list because the 2.4 litre engine will shortchange you on fuel.. You may also want to stay away from the Honda Civic due to window and AC and a few suspension issues.. For Hyundai and Kia, cost of maintenance parts is your number 1 justification for staying away.

I wish you success in your existing or prospective transport business.

Don’t forget to rate, like, and share.
