You can buy any car of taste for yourself.

But for Uber and Bolt, my brother, listen to earlier advise.
Dont exceed 700k
Your best bet is Honda Civic, City 05-06

Toyota Echo, Yaria, Corolla Bank Type

Golf 05

Vibe

Bolt would accept Nissan Almera 03

Why am I saying this.

You don't want to buy a ₦2.5M Car for a trip of ₦300(Passenger has a ₦200 discount, thus pays ₦300)

You need to ask drivers first how profitable it is.

So the cheaper your Car the better, Just ensure its sound and clean so you can get offline trips.

Its a commercial vehicle not show off.

Also Bolt would pay the guy driving a ₦5M Car and the one driving a 500k Car same amount for same distance.

I hope OP listens to this. putting over 2m naira on a car for uber isn't worth it again, when one can get a sound 06-10 naija used civic for 700-800k and he can divert the rest money to another thing.

I have a problem free Passat (2008) for 1.2m, I’ve used it for bolt and it’s profitable, bought another car(Volkswagen Tiguan) and so I want to let that one go.

Fuel economy is decent, Parts are not expensive. Everything is still factory spec on the car especially the wiring, no bypasses. Holla me if you’re interested

Just curious bro!
Tiguan is an SUV. Can one use an SUV on bolt? if yes, are passengers charged a higher fee than when in sedans? cuz I have access to a Hyundai ix35 I can use if it's allowed.
