I’d love to hear the Hacker News community’s thoughts on this concept:
- Is this a service you’d consider using? - What would you expect in terms of pricing? (Flat fee, distance-based, hourly?) - What challenges or opportunities do you see in scaling a service like this?
Here’s a quick rundown of the idea:
- Drivers arrive at your location via electric scooter or electric bike. - They stow their scooter in your car and drive you to your destination. - Once you’re home, they use the scooter to get to their next assignment.
Preliminary Pricing Ideas: - Base Fee: $10–15 - Additional Charges: $1–2 per kilometer OR $10–15 per hour - We’re considering a pilot launch in cities where alcohol-related driving laws are strict, like Montevideo or Santiago, but I’d love to hear if this idea resonates with a broader audience.
In China, services like this are quite popular, but I would love to have a broad insights.
Looking forward to your insights and feedback!
