As the year comes to an end, Uber has solidified its place as the preferred means of transportation for a lot of working people. Delhi led the field in 2023 and took home the record for the most Uber journeys. This information is derived from Uber India's extensive yearly statistics report, "How India Ubered in 2023," which offers insights into the various travel trends seen in the nation's major cities.
The people who live in Delhi-NCR mostly use Uber for their daily commute to work, earning the region's title of having the most Uber rides overall. Remarkably, the nation's capital had the highest number of visits made during business hours, highlighting its crucial function in promoting occupational mobility.
