Uber will hire electric bicycles

Uber services are used by a huge number of people around the world. The taxi can take you to the desired point and even transfer your things or deliver food. But soon Uber customers will have access to another mode of transport: on the basis of Uber, a project for the rental of electric bicycles starts.

Not so long ago, Uber acquired the company Jump, which specializes in the rental of electric bicycles. Jump provides bicycles equipped with both pedals and an electric motor. Uber already collaborated with Jump in San Francisco and now wants to spread the experience around the world. As the head of Uber, Dara Khosrovshahi,

"With our application, we will provide various modes of transport so that the user can choose the fastest, cheapest and convenient way to get to the right place."

The market of electric bicycles in recent years, according to experts, grew by 60-80%, so it is not surprising that many predict a bright future for them. In addition, means of individual transport such as bicycles, scooters and the like in the future can really press modern cars. According to some analysts,

"Uber has become interested in the bicycle sector not only because of its rapid growth, but also because the company is preparing for the moment when people stop buying cars. In the market there will soon be unmanned vehicles, so if you live in the city, then you will not have to buy a car. Maybe you want to go somewhere in a taxi, and the rest of the time it would be convenient to use a bicycle. "
