This is one of the more ill-informed tweets. How hard is it to roll out a ride hailing up? Borderline impossible. Especially for companies that have zero competency in service, software and marketplaces.

...which is part of why Audi bought Silvercar. This gave them a well-run service company with physical locations in most metros. And they've recently added renter pickup so it's not like this is black magic. What's more unrealistic to think is that a move to driverless cars / less car ownership would lead to the manufacturer's rolling over.

> How hard is it to roll out a ride hailing up? Borderline impossible. So how do we already have Lyft, Cabify, MyTaxi, Bolt, Kapten, Didi, AutoNavi, Meituan, Grab, OlaCabs, and a bunch more?

  Lyft is the only one I've ever seen in the USA. Even Uber has struggled in markets where a strong player already existed.
