The ride-hailing industry has ushered in a peak season, and orders have increased significantly...
Since 2023, the recovery of temperatures and the improvement of the epidemic seem to have ushered in the peak season for all walks of life, and the same is true of the travel industry.
Whether it is from the perspective of the increase in people's demand for ride-hailing, or from the fact that most people choose to engage in the ride-hailing industry, which has brought development opportunities to car rental companies and ride-hailing platforms, it is enough to see that online ride-hailing has been covered by the peak season in recent times.
The increase in travel does bring drivers a different feeling from last year's off-season, the most direct of which is that the number of daily orders received by drivers has indeed increased compared with last year, but the income of drivers has not risen, increasing year-on-year, and only when the online time of the car reaches a certain standard, the drivers have a good income.
That is to say, the high turnover income requires drivers to pay more time to accumulate, it stands to reason that the increase in the number of orders and drivers' income will also increase year-on-year, so why are drivers still working so hard? Maybe after reading the interview with this driver you will understand ...
"Although there are more orders, it is still six or seven thousand yuan a month..."
How much can ride-hailing drivers earn during peak season? I believe this is the biggest concern of everyone who wants to join the ride-hailing industry. Recently, the editor saw an interview in which a Shenzhen ride-hailing driver explained the bitterness behind the ride-hailing season.
The driver said; Sometimes you can run about 500 a day, excluding charging, rent, car rent and daily expenses, you can only get about six or seven thousand a month, and this level of income is also in a better situation and without removing the violation fine, which is a better situation.
In the face of the question, "Is the current turnover a little higher than last year?" The driver smiled bitterly and shook his head: No, although everyone now takes more cars when they go out than last year, and the daily order volume is better than last year, but the driver has less fare.
The driver added: Although the starting price has been raised, but in the end there is less time to calculate the money for you, what is the use? Here the editor does not quite understand, does this driver mean that the platform "takes" away?
Later, the driver gave an example: Take the single that just ran, the distance of 21 kilometers, to the driver's hand is only 33 yuan, last year like this distance can get 44 yuan, do a single less nearly 10 yuan, how to compare with last year?
The driver said that he ran twelve or three hours a day, from the morning to about ten o'clock at night to collect the car, today ran for 8 hours with a turnover of 328 yuan, it is still relatively hard to be a ride-hailing driver.
It is not easy to make money, and health and life safety must always be put first
Especially since the beginning of this year, the lively scene of online car hailing has attracted a large number of drivers and platforms to join, T3, Cao Cao Travel, AutoNavi Taxi, Yifu Hitch, Tick Ride and other platforms are constantly competing, which is even harder for drivers, but in the process of sports cars, we must also put physical health and life safety in the first place.
For the current increase in orders, drivers' income still cannot go up, what do you think are the reasons for this?
