Uber

All the kind time of the day! Relatively recently, I found an interesting article on NextBigFuture, which shows the facts that Uber covers much more spheres than taxis and “karshering”. A short extract from that material is quite well dispersed from my @ Groks channel in Telegram. I hope this information will also be of interest to the audience of GeekTimes.

According to Columbia University, 9,000 Ubon drone can fully meet the needs of New Yorkers in a taxi. Estimated time of arrival is 36 seconds. The cost is half a dollar per mile. On such terms, the use of such a service becomes more profitable than buying your own car.

Uber is estimated at $ 41 billion. With an average cost of a car of $ 25,000, the company needs only $ 4.3 billion to replace the 171,000 taxis in the United States.

Today Day in the world about 3.5 billion car owners. In the long term, PwC predicts a 99% reduction in the national fleet. In 2015, about 73 million passenger cars were produced.

The most piquant is that, in addition to the automotive industry, this will affect the 100-million car loan industry, a 200 billion automobile insurance sector, a $ 100 billion car park and a $ 300 billion secondary

I remembered how in 2007 Steve Jobs said that if the iPhone takes 1% of the market, then it will be good. And Uber despite the billions of losses is difficult to call a bubble. It’s not just about taxis. Dads from Goldman Suchs and others know how much they can scrape together with friends and what they “fold”. The question is only in the time frames and technologies. The result is terribly interesting.

Many thanks to all for your attention.
