Yes, you are right. If can hit $2k for 10 hrs is already considered good n satisfactory.

For those who dont know, the fołlowing shall be the calculations. On avg a taxi, uber or grab shld collect between $20 to $25 per hour, sometime more sometime less, so lets calculate say on avg the collection per hr is $25 for 10hrs solid driving.

So fare collection $25 x 10 hrs Driving = $250.
----------------------------------------
Expenses
Pay grab or uber 20% of $250 = $50
......................rent honda vezel = $75
........................................patrol = $60
............................................Erp = $15
..................So Total expenses = $200
--------------------------------------------------------------------

So nett profit = $250 - $200 = $50.

So after driving for 10hrs, the driver make only a miserable $50, after makan left only $35.

Yes its true they have incentive if one fetch a certain amount of passengers per week however they set d incentive in such a level that if one didnt drive for a day, u get no incentive. So on avg, if one wish to get d incentive, he shld pickup at least 20 passengers per day everyday for 7 days.
