“Yandex” has launched the budget taxi service “Vezet” – you will have to wait longer for a car, but rides will be cheaper than in “Yandex Taxi,” the company promises. The rides will be most cost-effective during peak demand periods – on average, 20% cheaper than the “Economy” fare.
“Vezet” is suitable for non-urgent trips – when you need to go somewhere but are not in a hurry, explained Yandex. The rides will be most advantageous during periods of high demand – for example, during rush hours or bad weather.
The company explained this with a different approach to pricing in “Vezet” and “Yandex Taxi.”
“In both services, the cost increases during peak hours, but in “Vezet” – only up to a certain limit: no more than 50% of the base fare. Additionally, only those cars that are nearby are assigned to “Vezet” orders,” Yandex said.
The same drivers who work in the “Economy” fare will fulfill orders in “Vezet.”
At the moment, it is unknown whether this service will be available in Uzbekistan.
