Lyft Lux & Lux Black Ride Share with Lexus ES 300h 

I agree 👌🏼

I only drive Lux and Lux Black. I don’t do regular Lyft rides

@@ryanhablitzel Thinking on renting one of these for a month to see how it goes.

Uber black May not be worth it because they require commercial insurance to my understanding. If the Lyft Lux business is good in your area, no need for Uber. Lux and Lux Black rates for Lyft are significantly higher. Probably double or more most of the time. I still drive Uber X once in a while to fill gaps, but am selective about choosing my rides. Hybrid over ES 350 all day in my opinion.

@@ryanhablitzelyou said drive Uber X? Why not Uber Comfort? This car more than qualifies for it

Uber requires that I complete 500 rides to qualify for Uber comfort. They actually just started sending me comfort rides after 100 total rides completed, but I don’t have the option to receive only confort rides requests yet.

Get the 350 for Uber as well if you’re doing this full time you want to maximize your earnings so Uber black lyft lux black now you have two options instead of one. Plus the gas mileage isn’t the worst Toyota Lexus v6’s give very good gas mileage compared to other v6’s I’m currently driving a 2018 Lexus es 350 I get about 26 mpg combined city and highway. Which is not bad at all. I’m in the Boston area

Yes. Their are no specific interior color requirements for Lyft Lux Black qualification. This combination is considered “Acorn” color.

@@ryanhablitzel How do you like this interior color? Is it real leather?

Not “real” leather, but probably better than real leather? Love the color. Passengers love it too.

I live and work in the Phoenix/ Scottsdale area and I would say Lux and Lux Black are very profitable here. No need to go to Vegas. You just have to learn where to be and when.

Luxury 😎

@@ryanhablitzel Thanks, What do you know about the main difference is of 23 and 24 year model? Thanks.

I don’t know anything about the ‘24 model. I would imagine it would be basically the same with a few different styling options.

@@ryanhablitzel What color is your Lexus? I mean, the official Lexus designation. Is it Obsidian or Caviar? And do you know if Caviar qualifies for Lyft Lux Black, or just Obsidian? The reason I'm asking is that I have no clue which color to get to qualify for Lyft Lux Black. Thanks.

My car is Caviar. Both Obsidian and Caviar qualify for Lux Black

It probably depends on the area of service. I’ve found there is a mix, but Lux riders tend to be more respectful in my option.

Not that I’m aware of???

I don’t use seat covers. The leather seems durable and I keep it conditioned.

My market for Uber only allows for Uber comfort after 500 rides in this car. No thanks! I only do Lyft Lux and Lux Black and do well. No need for Uber.

So far I’m really happy with this car! Hope you are too!

Not for Lyft

Agreed

Isn’t Lexus ES qualified for Uber black?

@@bostonnadyrbekov6361 Nope, the LS does.

The ES 350 is qualified in some locations, but not the ES 300h. That’s ridiculous because the 300h is a more smooth luxury feel and ride.

The es 350 has been a black qualified vehicle since Uber launched I remember the 2013 14 was compatible as well they recently took them off some markets, I don’t understand how a Lincoln MKZ is still on Uber black but not Lexus es

No, not for the XL

😂
