Uber is jumping into the scooter wars

The ride-hailing monster is outlining an electric bike to lease in urban communities, rivaling administrations from Bird and Lime.

Yet, Uber's about autos … The organization perceives that bikes and electric bicycles are a more quick witted approach to movement short separations. "Amid surge hour, it is extremely wasteful for a one-ton mass of metal to take one individual 10 squares," Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi told the Financial Times as of late.

What's straightaway: Uber as of now gives individuals a chance to book Lime bikes through its application. In any case, it obviously needs to work its own bike sharing administration. It's affirmed to do as such in Santa Monica and, however got denied in San Francisco yesterday. It's supposedly building up its own particular bike, which it clues would be sturdier and more impervious to vandalism.

Why it is important: Uber's passageway into bike sharing will influence costs and rivalry, and also the manner in which inhabitants and governments respond to this new method of transportation. Be that as it may, urban communities should profit by less movement if more individuals pick bikes over autos.
