Uber aims to have a 100% electric fleet in London by the end of 2025 and has teamed up with Splend to support drivers by setting up access to EVs through the Uber Clean Air Plan.

Owning an EV is now more affordable than ever! We double your Uber EV assistance to reduce the cost of a brand-new EV

How does Uber’s Clean Air plan work? 

For all trips you took between 16 January 2019 and 14 March 2022, Uber charged your riders a small fee, which went into your EV Assistance. Similar to a savings account, you can now access the money raised, to buy a new car through Splend.

How does EV Boost work? 

1. Find your EV assistance: Open the Uber driver app and look for “Electric vehicle grant” in your inbox. If you’re having trouble finding it, our team can check if you’re eligible.

2. Head to our online EV boost calculator: Select your favourite EV and use the slider to match your EV assistance found in step one. The calculator will automatically apply our EV boost, doubling your EV assistance. For example, if you have £3,000 EV assistance, we’re doubling it to £6,000 you can use as credit towards paying for the EV you want. The calculator shows you how much you save per week based on the ownership term you select.

3. Submit your application: Now that you calculated your savings, it’s time to submit your enquiry and speak to our expert team about getting started with EV Boost.

4. Get on the road: Start putting your weekly payments towards owning your brand-new EV.

Bonus step: If you own the car you’re driving for Uber and want to trade it for a brand-new EV, with Splend’s part-exchange, we can take that old car off your hands and contribute even more towards your new EV.

EV Boost is available on our Flexi own plan. This offer can even be used in conjunction with our part-exchange program and our referral program.

TIP: If you’re a Splend customer and have a friend with EV Assistance, give them your referral code and collect a £200 bonus.

About Splend

At Splend, we believe in drivers. We know their vehicles need to work harder than most; that they drive more miles than most; that their insurance is hefty; their maintenance costs high and that they can face unreasonable finance rates – which is a heavy load to carry on their own.

That’s why at Splend, we exist to support rideshare drivers with a new model, that takes all those car ownership costs, and provides them for less, with lower purchase prices, better rates, lower servicing and insurance costs – all for one weekly repayment, all in one place.
