Uber is not really cheaper, they are just burning their investors cash to project the illusion. When a) that runs out and b) they have to pay the same fees and taxes and follow the same regulations as other taxi companies, the true cost will be revealed
- Helmet 9y agoYou're speculating. As it stands right now, Uber is absolutely cheaper than taxi's (at least where I am from). What they have to do in the future is anyone's guess.
- gaius 9y agoHave they figured a way to get cheaper cars and fuel then? And are their drivers willing to work for lower pay than any other drivers? At the end of the day, you can't sustain charging less for a service than it costs to provide, and make it up on volume.
- dbbk 9y agoThat is only because Uber is currently subsidising the rides. This is well known.
