Uber is finally bringing back their shared ride option after stopping the service in March 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Branded under a new name, UberX Share, the revamped UberPool service will first be available in Miami. As we all know, Uber’s prices have skyrocketed recently, so bringing back a cheaper carpooling option may make taking an Uber a more popular transportation option again.
“We are launching an Uber shared pool product,” Khosrowshahi said. “We have been investing for years in a high-capacity product, which is looking more and more attractive as it relates to a unit economic basis, where that can bring the price significantly lower.”
Not only has Uber rebranded the name of their shared ride service, they have also changed how it works. With an UberX Share ride, you’ll only ever ride with one other person (in addition to the driver) during your trip. As we are still battling Covid-19, everyone in the car must also wear a mask, even if they are vaccinated. If you are matched with another rider, you will be given a 5% discount on your ride as well as Uber Cash.
1. Request
Open the Uber app, enter your destination, and scroll down to the UberX Share ride option.
2. Ride
The app will try to match your car with other riders heading your way. Get a 5% discount and Uber Cash if you’re matched with a co-rider.
3. Arrive
Once you arrive at your destination, hop out and rate your driver!
The news of shared rides being offered again is very welcomed by the rideshare community. Lyft brought back their shared ride service in July after also stopping the popular ride option in March 2020. Very similar to Uber, Lyft riders also have to wear masks and will only ever be partnered with one other passenger.
Uber has yet to state on when it will expand their UberX Share service to other cities but keep an eye out on your Uber app as they do plan to expand!

If you want to do a ride for very little money, then you are in the right place. Twins Taxi Limo is offering a very cheap ride to its customers. Just go and make your booking before anyone else makes a reservation.

Shared rides are nice. This way, many people can benefit with cheap carpooling and get to their destinations easily. Whenever I have to go to do coursework for me, I prefer taking a shared ride towards my friend's address, and it definitely is budget friendly for me.
I've never tried this kind of driving experience before, I'm sure it costs less, if you have enough time, I can recommend you to play basketball legends game, this game is really great.
