WarpSpeed Taxi Inc. (WRPT) SMART SHARING
However, at the same time, it ought to be noted that the company was in the news yesterday after it presented a new service named WARPSPEED TAXI SMART SHARING. The presentation of a new service is almost always a major development for any company but it did not lead to any joy for the WarpSpeed stock. However, it may be a good idea to perhaps take a look into it.
In this context, it ought to be noted that due to the massive rise in the price of oil in recent times, more and more drivers are quitting the popular taxi hailing services like Lyft and Uber.
Hence, customers have been left with grappling with long waiting times and poor service. The latest product from WarpSpeed offers an alternative in that regard. The new service is going to help people who maybe travelling in the same direction or the same destination to share a cab. Hence, it is not only designed to save money but also cut down on waiting times.
