Q: What kind of cars can I expect with UberXL?
A: A wide range of SUV and van models will be available. Here are a few examples of the cars you can expect:
Toyota Innova

Q: Can I make multiple stops to pick up other passengers on a single trip?
A: Yes! Uber’s Multiple Destinations feature allows you to add up to two extra stops along your route, so you can pick up or drop off friends along the way without any hassle. Just tap the + symbol next to your destination to make an extra box appear, and you can then enter your additional destinations. You can also add, change or remove your stops once you’re on the move.
