"Uber drivers across the United States can get a $4,000 grant from the ride-hailing giant if they switch to an electric car. The program was initially available to drivers in New York City, California, Massachusetts, and Colorado, and has now been expanded to Uber drivers anywhere in the U.S."
"Besides the $4,000 grant, the ride-hailing enterprise has partnered with Kia for discounts on new electric car purchases. Uber drivers have exclusive access to a $1,000 discount for a new Niro EV or EV6, and $1,500 for a new EV9 SUV."
"Uber's transition to electric is being driven by thousands of drivers making the switch, as the economics of owning an EV continue to improve. We'll keep doing our part by helping lower costs alongside our partners and working with charging companies and cities to improve access to high-quality infrastructure."
Uber's EV grant program is now available to drivers across the United States, providing a $4,000 incentive for switching to electric vehicles. Initially limited to select states, the program aims to facilitate the transition to EVs amid rising gas prices and the absence of the federal tax credit. Eligible Platinum and Diamond drivers must complete 100 rides by December 31, 2026, to qualify. Additional discounts are available for new Kia EVs and through TrueCar, enhancing affordability for drivers. Uber emphasizes its commitment to sustainability and improving access to charging infrastructure.
