From UberX to Uber Green, Uber has extended its services, providing users with options fit for every moment in which they need to travel.
“In the following years, Uber is dedicated to evolving our services in Romania. Collaborating with authorities and drivers, we aim to use technology to tackle common urban challenges like congestion, pollution, and parking. Our commitment is to create a smoother and more sustainable mobility experience for everyone in the cities we are present in”, says Ana-Maria Borlovan, Head of Driver Operations at Uber, for the Central & Eastern Europe region.
More than a ride
Safety of rides is a priority for Uber, which is why the company is constantly working on new features within the app. Rides offered through Uber are provided by licensed partners who must meet a number of requirements to join the platform. Additionally, the app offers passengers a number of safety features. Sharing rides with loved ones, PIN verification or safety buttons are just a few of them.
