Uber MOTO 1

Uber has announced the launch of UberMOTO, which is a bike-sharing service gives additional options to the riders other than cab service, which is much more affordable and sometimes convenient.


Travis Kalanick, Founder and CEO of Uber said;

I am excited to be in Hyderabad for the launch of uberMOTO. It’s a quick, easy and affordable way to get around the city. And it’s great to be working with a progressive, forward thinking government like Telangana on smart mobility solutions that can help reduce congestion in urban areas.

How Does UberMOTO Works?

Just like booking Uber Cabs, riders can summon motorcycle rides at the push of a button, through the Uber app. The rider receives driver and bike details just as they do for other Uber rides and addition to that Uber has also added all standard safety features before, during and after the ride including GPS tracking, two-way feedback and the ability to share trip details with family and friends.
