Best Cars for Uber & Lyft

Rideshare driving demands low operating costs, comfortable rear seats, reliability, and a clean presentation. These vehicles maximize your per-mile profit while keeping passengers happy.

#1

Toyota Camry Hybrid

51 MPG combined means your fuel cost per ride is nearly nothing. Toyota reliability means you're never offline for repairs. The back seat is spacious enough for any passenger.

#2

Toyota Prius

The original rideshare car. 57 MPG combined is untouchable. Hatchback shape fits luggage. Maintenance costs are among the lowest of any vehicle.

#3

Honda Accord Hybrid

48 MPG with a nicer interior than the Camry — your passengers will notice the premium feel. Excellent for Uber Comfort tier.

#4

Tesla Model 3

Zero fuel cost, minimal maintenance, and automatic Uber Comfort/Premium qualification. The upfront cost is higher but per-mile cost is the lowest on this list.

#5

Hyundai Elantra Hybrid

54 MPG combined at the lowest purchase price on this list. The math works for high-volume drivers who want to minimize their total investment.

#6

Kia Carnival

For Uber XL. Seats 7 passengers comfortably, qualifies for higher-paying XL rides, and the sliding doors make passenger entry effortless.
