Commuting in Indian cities is not just exhausting; it's expensive. Between rising fuel prices and the cost of vehicle maintenance, the average office-goer spends a significant portion of their salary just getting from A to B.
The Math of Savings
If your daily commute is 20km (round trip), and your bike gives a mileage of 40kmpl, you consume 0.5 liters of fuel daily. At ₹100/liter, that's ₹50 daily, or ₹1,100 monthly just for fuel. Add parking, maintenance, and insurance, and the cost climbs.
By sharing your ride with just one person through BikePool, you can split these costs. Most RideVelo users find that they can save between ₹3,000 and ₹7,000 monthly depending on their distance and frequency.
