The Drive pilot program was initially tested in San Diego last year with over 150 Mustang Mach-E cars in the fleet. Although the companies have not disclosed the exact results of the initial run, they highlight that California represents Uber’s strongest market for EV demand. Ford states that nearly 10 percent of all passenger miles were completed in EVs in California by late 2022.
To qualify for the program, drivers must have a minimum rating of 4.85 stars and have completed over 150 trips. The Mustang Mach-E offered through the program is a rear-wheel drive model with a range of 247 miles and includes CoPilot360 driver aids.
