Uber announced the launch of its new EV Hub and Comfort Electric which will help its goal of putting 50,000 Tesla EVs on the road by 2023
Uber said that it wants to help drivers go electric because that is core to its goal of becoming the cleanest mobility platform on the planet. According to Uber, the EV Hub which will be in the Uber Driver App is a “one-stop-shop where they can get information and incentives to join the electric revolution, and even compare the cost of ownership of an EV with a non-EV.
Kansal also told me that Uber Green, which is a low-emission service of Ubers that enables customers to choose either an EV or hybrid EV, has seen a lot of traction. It’s not currently available in Baton Rouge. Although, I have been in a few hybrids and one Tesla taking Uber here. That Tesla ride was how I found out about the Louisiana Tesla Facebook group.
I also find it encouraging that Uber wants to become the cleanest mobility provider on the planet, and I have a bit of feedback for Uber. One thing I have heard from many Uber drivers here in Baton Rouge is that they are not paid enough for their trips. When the gas prices were incredibly high last month, there was kind of a shortage of drivers because the common complaint was that drivers couldn’t afford to drive.
