Uber Rickshaw service called uberAUTO will allow the company to vastly increase its reach and appeal to the general population.

The ‘Uber Auto’ will initially start for Lahore and then will be expanded to major cities across Pakistan.

Just like Uber Car, the Uber Auto service can also be hailed via the official Uber app, and in the same manner, cash can be paid at the end of the ride.

“Auto-rickshaws are an iconic part of the Lahore landscape, and we are excited to unveil another service from the platform of Uber,” the company posted on its Pakistani website.

The service has been already launched in India.
