What is a Splend Hub?

Your gateway to rideshare success

If you're a rideshare driver or are looking to become one, the Splend Hub is the place to go. Much more than just a service centre or showroom - it's an all-in-one experience designed to support and enhance your rideshare career. Whether you’re exploring electric vehicles (EVs), looking for advice on maximising your earnings, or need hands-on customer support, the Splend Hub has everything you need, from test drives to educational resources, exclusive events, and personalised support from rideshare industry and EV specialists.

Much more than a showroom experience

Our hubs are the perfect place to see Splend’s rideshare-approved vehicles up close. With our Flexi Own and Flexi Try plans, you can choose from a variety of rideshare-friendly EVs, hybrid, petrol and diesel-powered vehicles.

At the hubs, you can get behind the wheel for a test drive to feel how EVs perform in real-world conditions. Whether you're curious about range, handling, or comfort, you can find out everything you need to know, with our team also on hand to answer all your questions.
