Colombo, we know your love for long drives to your favourite destinations. So, to ensure availability of your favourite ride for these drives, we have slightly changed the fares for the benefit of our driver-partners.
Starting 1st December 2016, after the first 10 kilometres, your Uber rides will be priced slightly differently for every additional kilometre that you ride.
Here is what has changed for uberGO and uberX:

| uberGO | Rs.50 | Rs.2 | Rs.30 | Rs.42 |
| uberX | Rs.100 | Rs.2 | Rs.50 | Rs.62 |
That being said, we are still the most affordable ride in town.
