It looks like a small SUV and since it’s not black on the outside I would say Uber X or perhaps Comfort if it’s a few years old.
For Uber Black it has to be black paint and interior. It only has four passenger seat belts, not 6 so it can’t qualify for XL/XXL or Black SUV.
Also that’s MUCH too expensive of a vehicle to be doing Uber in. The maintenance costs are huge.
I would trade it in and get a Toyota Sienna, a Honda Pilot or perhaps a Kia Carnival. This way you can earn XXL/XL trips as X pays terrible.
Actually Uber and Lyft both generally pay terrible now because there just too many drivers doing it.
I waited almost five hours yesterday for one honest customer at the airport, pirates picking people up at the curb illegally go unchallenged.
It’s really not a good business to get into and with a car like yours, likely get car jacked.
You need something that makes you look like a poor struggling working person as to beg for tips.
Uber doesn’t care about about fancy cars, except Uber Black which your vehicle isn’t black. Then if it was, you have to pay your own commercial insurance which is quite expensive.
If you need money, my suggestion is spend your effort to find a real job, this gig work is only that, unreliable and unpredictable.
Yea there are a few places that one can be very busy and actually make money, but they usually don’t last as competition moves in.
