Uber has launched its electric autorickshaw service alongside Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath in the holy town of Ayodhya under the name Uber Auto.
Following the debut of e-autos, the business will also begin operations of UberGo, its most economical vehicle product, as well as Uber Intercity, a rapidly developing mobility product that will service all inter-city travel needs to Ayodhya from key Uttar Pradesh locales.
