Ride-hailing company's CEO says drivers won't be allowed to use ICE vehicles into next decade

Uber plans to exclude ICE cars from its taxi fleet from 2030, the ride-hailing company's CEO has confirmed.

“We have a target to be fully electric in the US, Canada and Europe,” said Dara Khosrowshahi in an interview with CBS News.

When asked if drivers of “gas-powered" cars – which includes hybrids such as the ubiquitous Toyota Prius – would be allowed, Khosrowshahi replied: “No, if we're doing our job, we're gonna be all-electric.”

In the US, Uber has already incentivised EV uptake among drivers.
