Loading Sonik DriveDrive with us
No fuel bills, a certified electric vehicle from our fleet, and safety training included — Sonik Drive is built so drivers earn more of what they make.
Why drive with Sonik
Petrol is the biggest cost in a Nigerian driver's week. Take it out of the equation and the maths changes for everyone who drives with us.
Electric vehicles remove the single biggest cost in a Nigerian driver's week — running costs drop around 65% versus petrol.
60% on a Sonik fleet vehicle, or 85% if you bring your own EV — plus a lease-to-own path if you'd rather pay a flat weekly rental and work toward owning your vehicle.
Approved drivers are assigned a certified electric vehicle — no need to own or maintain a car of your own.
Every driver completes a dedicated safety programme alongside the background and licensing checks.
Recharge at Sonik's proprietary solar-powered stations, with scheduled maintenance keeping your vehicle road-ready.
We target 12 rides per vehicle per day, with a 30% Abuja market-share goal by Year 2.

Every driver passes a background check, licensing review, and a dedicated safety training programme.

How you earn
How much you keep depends on how you drive with us — bring your own EV, join the fleet, or lease-to-own.
85%
Kept by the driver
Already own an electric vehicle? Drive it on Sonik Drive and keep 85% of every fare — a 15% commission is all the app takes.
60%
Kept by the driver
Get assigned a certified electric vehicle from the Sonik fleet and keep 60% of every fare. The remaining 40% covers the vehicle, charging and platform.
Weekly rental
Instead of a fare split
Drive a Sonik vehicle toward owning it outright, paying a flat weekly rental fee rather than a percentage of your fares.
Apply
Send us your details and we'll walk you through the checks, the training and the vehicle you'll be driving. We're based in Abuja, FCT, Nigeria.
If you run a fleet and want to put electric vehicles on the Sonik platform, talk to us about a fleet partnership — we handle dispatch, charging and driver training.

Driver questions
Sonik Drive launches in Abuja first, with a national footprint of four cities planned by Year 3. Apply now and we will contact you as your city opens.
You don't need one. Approved drivers are assigned a certified electric vehicle from the Sonik fleet — there is nothing to buy and no vehicle of your own to maintain.
Yes. Bring your own EV and keep 85% of every fare — Sonik takes a 15% commission rather than assigning you a fleet vehicle.
It depends on your track. Bring your own EV and keep 85% of every fare. Drive a Sonik fleet vehicle and keep 60%, with the remaining 40% covering the vehicle, charging and platform. Fares settle in the app either way, so there is no cash to chase.
A third way to drive with us: lease a Sonik vehicle with a path to owning it outright, paying a flat weekly rental fee instead of a percentage of your fares.
There are none in the usual sense. Electric vehicles cut running costs by around 65% versus petrol, and you charge at Sonik's own solar-powered stations rather than buying fuel.
No. Every approved driver completes our safety training programme, which covers operating and charging the vehicle, before their first ride.
A valid Nigerian driver's licence and the willingness to complete a background check and licensing review. Vehicles are certified to Federal Road Safety Corps standards before they join the fleet.
