The City of New York will require all Uber and Lyft vehicles to be electric by 2030. The companies could get there even sooner.
address on January 26, New York City mayor Eric Adams announced that Uber and Lyft will be required to operate zero emissions electric vehicles only by 2030. New York City is one of the world’s largest markets for app-based ride-hailing markets. The new policy initiative by the mayor has the potential to affect an estimated 100,000 for-hire vehicles.
“We applaud the Mayor’s ambition for reducing emissions, an important goal we share,” Josh Gold, senior director of policy at Uber, said in a statement. “Uber has been making real progress to become the first zero-emissions mobility platform in North America, and there’s much more to do.
New York isn’t the first government to require an all-electric ride-hailing fleet. California adopted new rules in 2021 requiring ride-sharing companies to electrify their fleets by 2030 — a few years before the state expects to completely prohibit the sale of new gas cars.In January, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi told a conference hosted by the Wall Street Journal that his company is working with several automakers to. It’s part of Uber’s larger goal of electrifying its entire fleet by 2040.
