If you’re thinking of delivering packages for Amazon Flex out of your personal vehicle, choosing the right type of vehicle is crucial. There are many factors to consider - such as fuel efficiency, cargo space, and your delivery areas weather and terrain. So, what kind of vehicle should you drive if delivering for Amazon Flex?

In my opinion, this answer can be broken down into two different categories:

First Category is a part-time Amazon Flex driver that deliveries only a few Amazon Flex blocks per week. This type of driver can delivery out of almost any vehicle, preferably the vehicle they already own. It’s a delicate balance between putting miles on your vehicle (which depreciates it’s value) and making enough money as a part-time gig worker to help subsidize your vehicle payment.

But if you are a full-time Amazon flex driver or gig worker, which is the Second Category, you need a vehicle that is:

-Low cost
-Low maintenance
-High mileage
-Fuel efficient
-And Preferably used - not brand new

When it comes to delivery Amazon Flex packages, Toyota and Honda are two trusted brands known for their reliability, fuel efficiency, and overall low-cost of ownership. Their vehicles are known for their durability and longevity, ensuring that delivery drivers can rely on them for consistent performance and to meet the demands of their job.

Compact vehicles are an excellent option for delivering Amazon Flex packages in cities with dense traffic and limited parking. Their small size allows for easier maneuverability in tight streets and crowded parking lots. Additionally, compact cars tend to have better fuel efficiency, which is beneficial for reducing operating costs.

Also consider the vehicle’s cargo capacity and your delivery area’s terrain when making your decision. But ultimately, the vehicle you choose should depend on your specific needs and circumstances. Whether it’s a compact car or a larger SUV, selecting the right vehicle plays a vital role in ensuring smooth and efficient Amazon Flex deliveries.
