A word from the expert
Director of the consulting group “A-95” Sergei Kuyun confirms that the prices on the floor certainly could not be the reason for the increase in tariffs for taxi services.
“According to the floor, we are not sure yet problems – prices are stable, almost three thousand were asked for the rest of the month. There are reasons for this (increasing prices for taxi services – ed), then the stink is definitely not coming from the bedroom,” the RBC-Ukraine expert reports. .

So, if you consider that a car burns 10 liters per 100 km, and a liter of gasoline costs an average of 55 UAH/l, then 1 km costs 5.5 UAH. As the price rises by 1.5-2 UAH per liter, the price of one kilometer increases by 20 kopecks.

This contributes to the tariffs of taxi services significantly more, lower excise taxes on the floor, which is so often talked about.
“The formula has become: the increase in the price of a dollar per hryvnia leads to an increase in the price of a taxi by 80 kopecks per liter. On the cob Roku mi dollar for 38 UAH, at the same time 41 UAH. That’s 2.4 hryvnia to the price of a litre, in this case, for the devaluation of the hryvnia. i”, – supports the RBC-Ukraine news agency.
