No difference abeg.

In Francophone countries, anyone behind the wheels is chauffeur. Chauffeur is a French word, actually. The English uses driver.

C'est finis

If you have been in the middle of friends arguing about this topic, you would have recognised that there are similarities between a chauffeur and a driver.

However, the similarities stop with the fact that they both drive.

To give you a hint, the man behind the wheels in a Presidential car is a chauffeur. The man riding top businessmen to a conference is a chauffeur.

A Kabukabu driver is a driver.

Do these statements give you enough insights? Let me give you a more accurate explanation.



The Key Differences between a Chauffeur and a Driver


1. Anyone can be a driver; few can be called a chauffeur

If you drive yourself, you are a driver just the same way your personal driver is a driver. However, the man who is called a chauffeur doesn’t just drive himself; he is an expert in the field and they offer their service as real businesspeople because they are held responsible for their actions.

Chauffeurs are well-trained which is why they are hired to drive the crème de la crème.


2. They drive top quality vehicles

To some, this is the major difference between a driver and a chauffeur. But, it isn’t really the major difference. It is the result you get following the depth of knowledge and expertise you have in this chosen field.


3. They Offer Customer-centric Services

When was the last time you were abused by a danfo driver just because of a negligible amount of money? They are not really that customer-centric. They don’t have to be because they know they’ll sell whether they’re cool or not.

However, a chauffeur doesn’t have this mindset. First, a chauffeur rides the richest among the populace. Second, he/she is hired to offer a specialised service

Lol... I cant remember when last I read this kind of rubbish on the front page of NL. Anyway, let me just add mine; chauffeur wears suit, driver wears kaftan or one dirty t-shirt for a month.

THE OP , JUST SHUT UP IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT, CHAUFFEUR IN FRENCH SIMPLY MEANS DRIVER IN ENGLISH. THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE .

MrHighSea:
Chauffeur are skilled in other areas like Tactical or Arranging quality hoes for the boss without running his mouth.

They are defensive drivers too.
If you know how many drivers have been doing this for decades, in addition to even helping the household take car of the housemaid's (and sometimes madam's) needs, you no go dey talk this kind thing.

Autojoshng, u have had some brlliant posts on nl and earned some respect from me.

However I never expected u to have this issue of low-self esteem.

Although a chauffeur is French word for driver, why put a white man's picture in place of chauffeur and a black man's in place of a driver?

Or is ur brain paining u?

Driver (English), Chauffeur (French) and Conductor (Spanish) are the same. It seems the OP believed because the word "Chauffeur" sound TUUSH that is why he thinks they are different.

Every chauffeur is a driver. But not all drivers are chauffeur. A chauffeur earns wage/salary for their services.

Driver = Chauffeur. The difference is packaging. In the way OP thinks they are different, A driver may not open door for you but a Chauffeur does. I can just convert my driver by sewing fancy suit, cap etc. and tell him to always open my door when I want to alight from my car.
Re: The Key Differences Between A Chauffeur And A Driver by Microfels: 5:33pm On Mar 26, 2018
The difference between a chauffeur and a driver is the same difference between Plantain chips and Ipekere. Na packaging.

They are smart, well cultured and highly trained in defensive driving. They know how to manoeuvre the vehicle to a safe place, especially when the boss is attacked.
