First fleets
A first fleet of cars will be active immediately, which will be gradually increased in the coming weeks and months with new vehicles and new drivers. Therefore, the famous black sedans of Uber Black and the more spacious Uber Van will be active in Calabria, both operated by Calabrian car owners and holders of NCC (rental with driver) authorizations.
Roberto Occhiutopresident of the Calabria Region, said that “I have been working for several months to achieve this goal: Uber’s arrival in our Region is a further possibility to attract tourism and develop our territory. Already from this summer, thanks to the new air routes to our airports, hundreds of thousands more tourists will arrive in Calabria compared to previous years. It is our duty to guarantee them internal mobility adequate to the extraordinary potential of the Region. And for this reason we want many NCC cars in the cities and places of greatest tourist interest which, thanks to the Uber application, can be immediately bookable by users present in Calabria. It is the beginning of a new path in which we firmly believe.”
“Uber’s arrival in Calabria shows in practice our intention to invest in a Region with important growth prospects especially in tourism and new technologies, as demonstrated by the success story of the University of Calabria on Artificial Intelligence, attracting young people and scholars from all over the world”commented Lorenzo PiredduGeneral Manager of Uber Italy. “Today’s launch is just a first step towards increasingly efficient and citizen-friendly mobility in the Region, thanks to innovative mobility services. Today’s announcement confirms our commitment to offering industry workers new job opportunities through our app.”
