Uber on Tuesday announced the return of shared rides in select U.S. markets after pausing shared rides in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Uber is offering its shared ride service again. Shared rides were paused in 2020 due to the pandemic. Uber notes that its UberX Share service can save riders up to 20% off their total fare.
The ride-share giant claims that the program is designed to add no more than eight minutes to a user's ride.
Uber said that its UberX Share will be an option for riders in New York and other cities, with the plans to expand the initiative to even more cities this summer.
Uber suspended its former iteration of the shared ride service, Uber Pool, in March 2020 as health officials urged social distancing to curb the spread of COVID-19.
