鈥淲e鈥檝e chosen China to pilot UberCommute 鈥 the first time we鈥檝e launched a new global product outside the United States 鈥 because of the tremendous appetite amongst Chinese drivers and riders for creative new ways to get from A to B, affordably and reliably,鈥 Uber said.
鈥淥ver time we hope to adapt UberCommute for other cities around the world so that more people can carpool, helping reduce costs for everyone while also cutting congestion.鈥
