Why do I always say kia rio 1.6L 2007-2008

Simple .... They are strong, fuel economical and parts available.

A lot of people have said that parts for the hyundai n kia comes mostly brand new and expensive... my thoughts on this would be isn't it good to buy brand new parts that you can estimate the life span than buy tokunbo parts that the lifespan isn't predictable (all things been equal).

Acceptability by riders ... not all riders love fanciful rides and every one loves the Kia Rio come of its compact feel (I have 3 presently and no complains frim riders)

The most important factor I consider when getting a ride for e-hailing is how much is the two important parts for the vehicle which is

1. The engine

2. The transmission

I have come to see that's both parts are cheap over the regular Toyota corolla (recently did an engine upgrade from 1.4L to a 1.6L on a kia rio )

With this few points of mine, I hope I have been about to give u an insight on the vehicles I prefer for e-hailing bizness grin

I remember when uber slashed their fares and we all talked about creating a uber driver-partner union. Is this what such union will look like? I bet it would take less than 6months to derail such union as is been done to this once beautiful thread. Sad!!

Union ke ... what will the union do? Well one union has been formed and gotten approval to start this year cool

Your friend is one person and thank God it worked out for him. This forum gives you a variety of experience not just the good one. I started this business January last year and it was the worst start anyone could have in a business. I bought two naija used cars, corolla and 06 civic. Had to sell both in less than six months and used the money to buy one Tokunbo Corolla. I'm NEVER EVER going near a naija used car again, it really slowed down my progress this year but Alhamdulillah for the new momentum.

Presently have a 9ja used I bought... I just refurbished it recently (engine Change, suspension etc). I believe it will work. Buying 9ja used depends on ur ability to take the jump... note even tokunbo Cars sometimes have their own headache.

Hmm...theres alot of discouragement here. I know a guy who got a naija used Camry for uber at 900k in june and still uses it till now. He told me he has gathered some money to buy a new car and give it out. My surprise at the roi is what drew my attention to this business. Some comments here make things look impossible

Build ur Own biz approach... use advice gotten here to re-shape your biz outlook weekly or monthly. Every car will work, some will return high and others low. But plan your biz approach... that is important

the least price to get you a car on uber is 1.6million.

anything less than that, forget it and invest in another business
