Uber’s New York operation has hit a bump in the road.

Big Apple price cuts of 15 percent implemented in late January produced a revenue increase over the next two months of barely 1 percent, according to data obtained by The Post.

At the same time, the controversial rate cut — first reported by The Post — has sparked an increase of 10 percent in the number of fares Uber’s small army of New York city drivers have had to handle, according to Slice Intelligence, a San Francisco-based firm that tracks online sales receipts.

As a result, Uber drivers are having to work more for just about the same pay — pushing some drivers to switch to rival, better paying ride-hailing apps, sources said.

At the center of Uber’s Big Apple problems are price cuts to its popular Uber X and XL services, which almost entirely offset gains from the additional trips, according to Slice analyst Ken Cassar.

While Uber did increase the frequency of “surge pricing” for rides after its price drop, the price surges weren’t as steep, resulting roughly in a wash for total revenue, Slice found.

“This underscores the challenge for Uber,” Cassar said. “They made a pretty aggressive price move, and it hasn’t clearly benefited the business.”

Adding insult to injury, Lyft, a smaller but well-funded rival, saw revenue rev 12 percent during the same period, according to Slice.

Lyft’s New York drivers picked up 20 percent more fares as Lyft dropped its prices by 8 percent to match Uber’s.

Uber’s numbers likewise failed to improve in March, according to Slice, which compiled the data at the request of The Post.

Uber officials on Monday disputed the figures, calculating that post-price-drop revenue rose 2.7 percent in February and 6.4 percent in March.

But even those numbers mean Uber drivers were experiencing a pay cut. As a result, a handful of Uber drivers staged protests in early February over the price cuts.

“Some people are saying they feel like slaves driving for Uber,” said Mansur Ismolov, a veteran Uber driver who lately has been picking up more fares with the Lyft app. “It’s all about the fact that they cut the price.”

Since Uber’s price drop, Ismolov says he and others have been lured to Lyft by cash incentives and fatter commissions, although fares remain fewer and far between.

“Between May of last year and today, we’ve seen the total number of trips across the city increase seven fold,” said Evan Cohen, Lyft’s East Coast regional director, neither confirming nor denying the Slice data.

Still, Lyft’s New York business is only about an eighth the size of Uber’s, according to Slice.

“It’s easy enough to buy trips with heavy subsidies for drivers and discounts for riders,” an Uber spokeswoman said. “But to build a successful, long-term business, you need a path to profitability — which Uber has always had.”

While Uber says it is profitable in the US, Lyft has reportedly told investors it will lose $50 million a month this year.

Meanwhile, Uber in recent days has hinted it may ease a corporate stance that has discouraged tipping its drivers.
