Uber has put in place vehicle requirements for people who want to apply as drivers. These requirements are pegged on the type of Uber ride you want to apply for, either UberX or UberChapChap. Before you proceed to make your application to Uber as a driver, you must ensure that your vehicle meets the minimum stipulated requirements.
Make sure it meets the vehicle requirements in Kenya, and remember that you’ll make more money if you keep your costs low.
