Uber is making it easier for parents traveling with children by rolling out Uber Car Seat in New York and Los Angeles. This new option allows users to select a vehicle equipped with a car seat. The company has not confirmed if they plan to expand this feature nationwide.
Uber has partnered with Nuna to provide RAVA car seats, suitable for children weighing 5 to 65 pounds. These seats offer extra legroom and an easy setup for getting children securely buckled in.
Uber stated, “As spring break is in full swing and summer is on the horizon, we’re aiming to make your time on the go a little easier, so you can focus on what’s really important: spending time with loved ones.” To celebrate the launch, Uber is offering $10 off two rides using Car Seat in New York and Los Angeles with the code CARSEAT2024.
In 2023, Uber saw a 24% increase in trips booked and a 17% increase in overall revenue. CEO Dara Khosrowshahi commented, “2023 was an inflection point for Uber, proving that we can continue to generate strong, profitable growth at scale.”
Uber also hinted at an upcoming collaboration, sparking speculation that they may be partnering with Beyoncé for her new album release. The company’s stock was up 155% year over year as of Wednesday afternoon.
