If you care about more leg room and a larger car, will you fork over 20% more than Uber X? You may even get a Select category car such as a BMW, AUDI or MBZ and pay less.
Will you order Comfort over Uber X for 20% more?

"Uber Comfort" is just another marketing ploy to get more money out of passengers in the same, and in some cases worse, vehicles.
Yeah, we really don't know whether we are getting our money's worth, huh. You just feel like you are getting something great.
Impress your date. haha
I thought the Comfort was just non-black Uber Black
UberComfort includes SUVs, minivans, crossovers,sedans and trucks, including the Ford Escape, Edge and F150 truck, Honda CRV and Accord, Hyundai Tucson and Santa Fe Sport, Kia Borrego and Soul, Jeep Compass, Mazda 5, Nissan Rogue, Subaru Forester and Legacy, Toyota Camry and Sienna.
You are thinking of UberSELECT.
It depends in what city you’re in. The list of cars is long, however in Los Angeles, the Accord, Camry as well as a lot of Select cars like BMW, MBZ, Audi are on that list.
I actually do when available. The roads are full of older vehicles and this assured me I get a newer car.
Honestly I feel like the quality of the cars has been going downhill the recent years. The drivers so their best to clean but they can’t hide the fact that some cars are like ten years old.
I’m my experience. (The Comfort doesn’t seem to cost that much more so I do it.)
I agree, since 70% of drivers quit before 6 months and due to price cuts, car and driver quality has gone down a lot.
