Ride-share and delivery drivers could lease second-hand Japanese electric vehicles starting from $124 a week, as the company bids to be emissions-free by 2040.

Uber will offer drivers second-hand electric vehicles imported from Japan in an ownership pilot it says will help grow the Australian used electric vehicle market.

Foley said that with cost the “primary barrier” to ownership in Australia, ride-share vehicles will play a role in getting more electric cars on the road“You’ll continue to see those impacts of cars that have started on ride-share moving into the broader secondhand market over time.” Meanwhile, data from the Federal Chamber of Automative Sales on Monday showed while new plug-in hybrid vehicles were up 128.9 per cent compared with July 2023, sales of new electric vehicles were down slightly at 6.6 per cent of the market, from 7 per cent in 2023.

He said the uptake by ride-share drivers had helped with “myth busting” issues like affordability and durability of electric vehicles, saying beyond “general wear and tear”, used electric vehicles “with a couple of hundred thousand” kilometres could “still perform really well”.
