From the time Uber launched in Bangalore over two years ago, we’ve been committed to changing people’s lives by transforming urban mobility and moving cities. Today, we’re excited to announce that uberPOOL is live in Bangalore.
uberPOOL is now the cheapest way to UberuberPOOL matches you real-time with another rider heading in the same direction, adds only a few minutes to your trip, and you both save big. Trips are up to 35% cheaper than uberGO and no matter where you’re headed –uberPOOL gets you there for way, way less!  Taking uberPOOL actually eliminates congestion by reducing the number of cars on the road – making Bangalore a whole lot greener, cleaner, and more efficient with more shared rides.
We’re encouraging you to share your rides by carpooling. By sharing rides, you help take away an extra car on the road and reduce congestion in the city we all call home – Bangalore. There’s never been a smarter or more affordable way to ride, Bangalore! Start sharing your rides and save money today!
