Uber India trips in 2022 covered 4.5 billion km in length, or the distance from Earth to Neptune, the last planet in the solar system after Pluto was downgraded to dwarf planet status. It is the year Indians started travelling again as Covid-19 restrictions were removed gradually.

The ride-hailing company’s most popular product in terms of number of trips was Uber Go, the compact cab service, and Uber Auto came second.

The cities with the highest number of Uber trips were Delhi-NCR, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai, and Kolkata, in that order. Delhi-NCR also had the highest number of office-hour trips. Chandigarh was among the top five cities in terms of fastest average speeds. Hyderabad was among the top five cities for slowest average speeds.

Here are some numbers on ‘How India Ubered in 2022’:
  1. Indians spent 11 billion minutes travelling in Uber vehicles
  2. Most Uber trips were booked between 5pm and 6pm
  3. The most popular day of the week for booking an Uber was Saturday
  4. On Diwali, October 22, recorded the highest number of package deliveries through Uber Connect in 2022.
  5. As many as 53 per cent passengers showered drivers with their appreciation in the form of a 5-star rating.
  6. For Uber Rentals rides that offer multiple stops, most riders opted for the 2-hour, 20-km package, helping them get done with business meetings, doctor visits, and other chores
