the price of brand new battery pack of a hybrid will completely buy and refurbish a 406. In fact, i will buy a 406, refurbish it, register it on uber and taxify and start driving and making money before you have even found where to buy the battery pack and who has the technical ability to fix it. grin

That said, i know who fixes hybrids. but...

TAKE THE CAR TO GAZZUZZ FOR THOROUGH CHECK BEFORE U COLLECT IT...
DONT COME HERE TO TELL US YOUR CAR CONSUMES FUEL...
DRIVE SMART

Who is GAZZUZZ? The one that collect 10k just to diagnose ur vehicle with a diagnosis machine that is sold for 25k... While others charge 2k-3k.

He is charging high fees as if his workshop is in lekki, meanwhile he is located in very bad area in ifako ijaiye.

Stop all this hype about GAZZUZZ. He is not worth it.

While everyone is entitled to his / her opinion, @ the bolded above; No self respecting automobile technician, will use a machine sold for 25k as his major diagnostic machine. Your argument is a little flawed ma. Some of those machines cost close to 2 million naira exclusive of shipping, some others cost more. Of course there are toy scanners for 25k, but please don't ever mention them in same sentence with a technician's equipment. Thank you ma.

Not true, hybrid battery modules can be replaced FOR AS LOW AS 15K. I'm an electrical engineer and I work on Hybrids. It's all ABOUT GETTING THE RIGHT PERSONNEL.

Oga Google is ur friend, the diagnosis machine I saw in GAZZUZZ work shop is sold for 25k (tokunbo) Then add a tokunbo laptop, then u will know how much it cost.

You guys should stop all this useless hype about GAZZUZZ, he is worst than Uber that collect 25%.

Come to magodo, I will show you a very good mechanic that scan range rover sports for 3k-5k.

Dont allow this people use English to fool you, after spending hours on the road, then you hand over everything to greedy GAZZUZZ.

Brand New Hybrid batteries can be gotten for 450K. HOWEVER WHEN AN HYBRID FAILS, THE WHOLE PACK DOES NOT HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THE FAULTY MODULE CAN BE REPLACED FOR AS LOW AS 15K

Don't mind the ogunvic guy, 700k for battery... Then how much is the car itself. ALL this drivers that migrate from ogbomosho will just come here and be claiming they know everything.

Do you know the name of the scanner? Please name the scanner you saw so we can confirm the tokunbo price. I understand, diagnostic machines may look similar, especially if you are not used to them. You may be confusing it with another toy scanner.

I've been at that workshop and there is no 25k scanner there ma.

Hyundai Santafe is quite a strong car, if that's your only option then go ahead after all itz a 4cyclinder engine. There are people making use of Honda accord (evil spirit) and still making their cash and thats if you will be the one to drive it. If there's an alternative, then take your time and choose wisely.
Generally, the output of a car depends on how you treat it, treat her right and she will respond in the right way.

Please is there any Uber or taxify partner or driver using the Hyundai Santa Fe 2005 Model, i am planning to buy one for Uber and taxify, the car is still very clean and in a perfect condition but i don't know what the fuel consumption is like and i don't know how rugged the car is for everyday Uber and Taxify movement.

Please i need advise urgently on this car before i make payment please.

Thanks in advance.

Even if there is, IT'S NOT ABOUT THE COST OF THE MACHINE BUT RATHER THE EXPERTISE OF THE USER. Scanning a car can be done by ANYBODY, but then WHATS LEVEL OF SCANNING IS BEING DONE & HOW ARE THE RESULTS INTERPRETED.

In total agreement with you. If these so called hybrids were so terrible why are they the main cars you see Uber drivers use in Europe. Yes, agreed our roads are bad but if a Corolla can do it so can a Toyota Hybrid. I think the main issue is finding someone with the technical abilities. Alot of people talk so much crap here and it seems like if you don't use a Corolla or a Peugeot 407 then one is doomed. I have few cars on Uber and only one is a Corolla, the others are Hyundai Elantras which all out perform the so called Corolla

Where are the facts to back up your statement. My cousin uses this same car and indeed changed the said batteries, she did not spend anything close to the amount you just quoted.

The Elantra has a smaller engine so it's expected for it to out perform the Corolla.

Since I'm not him, I won't be able to take a picture.

I said no serious technician uses 25k scanners as a major tool, I didn't say he uses 2mil scanners. I only told you how expensive a scanner can be. Read my posts slowly and comprehend.

My grouse with you is saying that technicians buy 25k scanner, and charge 10k for scanning. All others are mere explanations.

I will oblige you just this once, and stop the derailing. Since you referred to google and he does Launch, please google Launch x431 pro. Factor in exchange rates, shipping and clearing, and you'll know it is way above 25k, even on Tokunbo. (Do people even buy tokunbo scanners?). Please I'm not talking of clones on aliexpress oo, even those ones can't go for 25k. Refer to gwng's post and admit that you goofed.

You are subsequently ignored.

You are missing the point whilst buttressing my it. When a question is asked about any car, certain people are quick to say Corolla and Peugeot. I am saying there are other cars that are only as good but perhaps even better. We need to distinguish between opinions and facts.

UBER-average rating of your last 500 trips, a single poor rating(1) will drop ur rating drastically. Most riders on UBER rate low because they aren't happy with UBER and the drivers in Lagos the are embittered,harsh and see drivers as potential rude guys...
TAXIFY- average rating of ur last 40 trips... Riders are friendly, recently TAXIFY drivers have been cool and arrive ASAP, the drivers can tolerate because no cancellation fee....riders are very happy and calm.
HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR RATINGS
1. Call riders before they call u and address them politely and professionally
2. Announce your arrival and greet them with a friendly smile..
3.Male riders are easy to please but female riders are devils so act carefully they complain about everything and willing to rate u low because most of them know the implications so play smart. Be jovial with the female riders, they like friendly conversation especially the ones that sit beside u
4.Your car must be neat, A/c must be super cold
5.Have aux cable and extra charger, ask them if they need either of it
6.offer mints or gums... They love orbit grin
7. Take riders preferred route or drive thru shorter routes to avoid traffic... Riders want to get to destination asap
8. Give free WiFi
9. Drive carefully, professionally and drive fast
10.Don't argue with riders
11.apologize when they complain about anything
12.your dressing is important... DRESS WELL. Ladies like guys that dress well...
13.Engage them in friendly conversation...
DRIVE SMART...
