Uber has announced a suite of new product innovations, including ways they are pushing for a sustainable future via a virtual event hosted by chief executive Dara Khosrowshahi.
Click here for a recording which provides an overview of the new products rolling out, including the imminent launch of a new in-app Charging Map for driver-partners with EVs to show the way to the nearest EV chargers and other details, and an EV Hub that provides information and incentives for drivers to join the electric revolution.
Both features will become available for drivers this winter.
Following Uber Australia’s announcement in July last year of a 50% reduction of service fee for driver-partners driving electric vehicles, the number of Uber driver-partners driving EVs on the platform has quadrupled, with Queensland leading the charge with the highest rate for Uber trips taken in an EV of any state.
Uber hopes the new charging map and EV platform will continue to boost the number of EV drivers on it.
