Splend backs Uber's net-zero mission by rolling out 500 new Polestar EVs in Sydney

 Australian car hire platform Splend, the largest provider of vehicles to the national rideshare industry, is bolstering Uber’s ambitions to become carbon neutral by 2040 with the rollout of 500 new electric vehicles for its drivers by 2023.
