Bolt’s Post

the carsharing service like the one described in the news will be useful in Saudi Arabia, By having Spark electric cars available for rent through the Bolt app, it simplifies the process for city dwellers in Saudi Arabia. Instead of having to download and manage multiple apps or visit different rental agencies, users can access and book a Spark car directly through the Bolt app. This saves time and effort, providing a more convenient and efficient way to start their journey. While the specific service mentioned in the news is currently available in Lithuania, it highlights the potential benefits that a similar integration could bring to Saudi Arabia. It would provide an easier, more diverse, and sustainable carsharing experience for city dwellers in the country

This is a step in the right direction for #Shared #Micromobility.

News that 2023 was the hottest year on record was a sobering start to the year.  It underscored the urgency behind Uber’s goal to become a zero-emission platform by 2040. As the world’s largest ride hailing platform, we facilitate millions of trips a day, whether by car, motorbike, auto rickshaw or bus. Rightly, we are expected to lead on electrification wherever we operate.    There are structural issues that make it hard for drivers to switch to EVs. EVs are more expensive than the models we typically see on the platform. And public EV charging stations in cities across the world are patchy at best. As we begin 2024, the good news is that we continue to invest time and money in helping drivers get more affordable EVs, and are working with cities and industry to expand urban charging points. In fact,  in North America, drivers on Uber are going electric seven times faster than in the overall market. Given the amount of time many of them spend on the road, this is already delivering an outsized impact on CO2 reduction targets.   Here in Asia, we started 2023 with just one country with a green option available on the app. By the end of the year, riders could choose an EV vehicle or hybrid in Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Taiwan, India and South Korea. In total, we more than doubled the number of zero-emission trips on the platform. It’s a good start, we still have a huge task ahead of us. I’m excited to see more progress in 2024. #EVs #sustainability #mobility

App-based car sharing services are becoming increasingly important for mobility services in Europe. Electrification is also advancing among car sharing providers. KINTO, for example, has already converted a large part of its fleet to electric vehicles. Let's work together on a sustainable future! 🌍 #KINTO #CarSubscription #MobilitySolutions

With Uber facilitating a staggering 20,000 electric rides per day in Australia, the rise of electric vehicles in ridesharing is undeniable. Emma Foley, Uber's Managing Director for Australia and New Zealand, highlighted the substantial increase in EV adoption over the last 12 to 24 months. Despite this surge, the lack of sufficient charging infrastructure poses a significant barrier. This doesn't just affect individual EV owners but has far-reaching implications for rideshare users, emphasising the critical need for accessible charging stations. We acknowledge that solving this issue demands a collaborative approach. This is why, through our partnerships with local councils and utilities, we are able to expand access to reliable charging infrastructure with our EVX Polecharger. This solution offers Uber drivers a convenient and accessible charging option strategically positioned on utility poles in residential, urban, and suburban areas.
