Uber no longer accepts diesel vehicles from 2022 !

The Uber application

You will soon be able to get into a Uber diesel: the app now prohibits diesels from registering on the platform. Objective 0 diesel in 2024 !

Uber wants to clean the fleet of its drivers. Since 2020, the app has decided to more and more restrict the use of diesels For his drivers. Last year, 100 % thermal diesel cars were no longer accepted when registering them in the application. In 2022, the message is clear: No more new diesel car will not be accepted on the platform.

Indeed, Uber has just announced that Thermal and diesel hybrids, that they are new or used, Can no longer be registered on its platform by drivers. Clearly, if the latter already roll with a car of this engine, no problem. But if they change their cars or are first registered with Uber, they will be Unable to record their car in the application.

The 0 diesel announced for 2024 !

For Uber, the goal is simple : 0 diesels on the application from 2024. Uber does not communicate on the current proportion of the engine in its fleet of drivers, but specifies that the drivers must in any case Replace their vehicles every 6 to 7 years, And that the park is therefore renewed mechanically. It should also be noted that the Grand Paris low -emission zone (ZFE) will prohibit anyway Entrance to diesel cars (Crit’air 2 and more) also from 2024 also.

For the rest, Uber announces a goal of 50 % of electric cars in the app by 2025, in three years. A goal that seems very ambitious, but Uber specifies providing A background of 75 million euros To accompany them in this transition, a background which is funded by an increase in prices of 3 cents per kilometer entered into force in 2021. In the longer term, Uber targets the 100 % electric for all its journeys by 2040, a target which will in any case be mid-accompanied mid-inforped by the different countries in which Uber operates.
