At Capital Hire Management Ltd., we are dedicated to supporting drivers in making the transition to more efficient and sustainable transportation options. One significant step in this direction is embracing Uber Green, a groundbreaking initiative designed to prioritize electric vehicles (EVs) in the rideshare market. As part of Uber’s commitment to a fully electric fleet, this program offers numerous benefits to drivers who choose to go green.

Uber’s Vision for a Greener Future

Uber has set an ambitious target to become the first rideshare provider globally to operate with only electric vehicles by 2050. For London, however, the goal is even more immediate, aiming for a complete switch to electric cars by 2025. This early transition is intended to position London as a global leader in sustainable urban transportation.

To support this vision, Uber introduced the Clean Air Plan, which provides substantial subsidies to help drivers upgrade to electric vehicles. As of May 2024, eligible drivers can receive a minimum assistance of £5,000 towards purchasing an EV. This initiative makes it easier and more affordable for drivers to make the switch to electric cars.

Introducing Uber Green

Uber Green is a feature within the Uber app that allows passengers to specifically request a ride in a 100% electric car. This option is available at no extra cost to riders, encouraging them to make environmentally conscious choices without compromising on convenience or cost.

Benefits for Drivers

Driving an electric vehicle under the Uber Green program offers several advantages:

  • Competitive Edge: By driving an EV, you get ahead of competitors still using internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. Passengers increasingly prefer eco-friendly options, and Uber Green caters to this growing demand.
  • Increased Earnings: Uber Green drivers earn 10% more per ride compared to standard UberX trips. This financial incentive makes the switch to electric cars even more attractive.
  • Environmental Impact: By choosing to drive an electric car, you contribute to reducing air pollution in London. This positive impact on the environment aligns with the growing trend towards sustainability in urban transportation.

Eligibility for Uber Green

To be eligible for Uber Green trips, you must drive a fully electric vehicle. This ensures that all rides under the Uber Green option are zero-emission, supporting Uber’s goal of cleaner air for London.

Availability of Uber Green

Currently, Uber Green is available throughout Greater London. This extensive coverage allows many drivers to take advantage of the program and contribute to a greener city.
