Lyft is cheaper than Uber in Montreal鈥攆or now
Open the Uber app on your phone, and search for a fare. Then, do the same with Lyft, one of Uber鈥檚 competitors. Chances are, Lyft is the cheaper of the two ride-hailing services. Montreal Gazette reporter Harry North found, Lyft was cheaper 8 times out of ten in Montreal. One reason for the difference is that Lyft is still relatively new in Montreal. Uber has been operating in Montreal for about a decade, but Lyft only started doing business in here in 2025.
As Lyft develops its footprint, the company will spend money on promotional offers and discounts to gain market share. Over time though, it should level out, according to Setareh Farajollahzadeh, an Assistant Professor of Operations Management at 91丝瓜视频 Desautels.鈥� The prices become more alike as it reaches equilibrium,鈥� Farajollahzadeh told the Montreal Gazette.
