Thanks to the hugely popular Sportage, Kia is now a brand synonymous with ridesharing across the country. It came as no surprise then, that the award-winning Kia Niro Hybrid was also an instant sensation with our customers when it first joined our lineup of Flexi own cars.

John is a Kia loyalist himself, who was among the first to pick up his brand-new Kia Niro HEV S. He claims his decision was purely based on his trust and appreciation for the brand, and the fuel savings the advanced petrol-electric hybrid drivetrain promises.

It was easy. I’m a big fan of Kia and I’ve long been waiting for a hybrid car. As soon as I heard Splend had the Niro, there was no doubt in my mind that I’d get myself a brand-new one.

John was especially happy that he found his dream car on a flexible Flexi own plan.

I think this will be life-changing as I can simply subscribe to drive my car, knowing I will own it after four years.

When asked why he chose to become an Uber driver, John didn’t hesitate much.

I love the flexibility – I work whenever I feel like driving, and I’m working for myself without being monitored by someone. This way I can earn as much as I want and I can control my earnings with my strategy, driving hours, and my knowledge.

He had a few good words about the Splend experience too:

I’m really happy with the service from the day when I came in to check out the new car. It’s easy and simple to deal with, and the team sorted out all the paperwork – all I need to do now is go online with Uber and start earning! It’s been a really great experience overall.
