Pester hailing company Lyft says it booked over $1 billion in GAAP gate for 2018, and showed revenue growth of 168% in Q4 versus the prior year’s thirteen weeks.
That growth is nearly 3 times as fast as Uber, which saw a 61% developing in revenue in Q4 vs a year ago. It’s also claiming 10 million rides per week.
