At Uber, we are committed to shaping a greener future by giving people access to go anywhere with fewer, fuller and more efficient vehicle trips and get anything with less packaging waste.

That’s why this Earth Week, we’re encouraging more consumers to go green. Over the last few years, we’ve strived to give riders across the world access to sustainable mobility solutions – including electric and hybrid rides with Uber Green. Since the introduction of Uber Green with fleet partners in Taiwan October 2021, Uber Green is one of the most popular ride options on the Uber App in Taiwan. And we are proud to say Taipei is the second most popular city globally for Uber Green after Paris.

To celebrate sustainability efforts, we’re sharing a series of product updates and activations:

  • Ride Green, save green: In Taiwan, Uber Green rides will always be the same price as UberX. We’ll have a clickable billboard front and center in the Uber app that takes riders directly to the Uber Green product request screen. Uber Green is available across multiple cities including Taipei, New Taipei, Keelung, Taoyuan, Hsinchu, Tainan and Kaohsiung cities in Taiwan in collaboration with our fleet partners. 
  • Turning the app Green: To celebrate Earth Week and remind folks to go Green when they can, we’re changing the car icon and route display for Uber Green in the app. 

Get anything with eco-friendly packaging: As a partner to greener cities, all deliveries from our eight Uber Eats Marts, as well as deliveries from PX Mart in the greater Taipei area on Uber Eats App, will be packaged in eco-friendly paper bags that are PEFC certified by the end of May.
