Hail a green ride in Sharjah with electric vehicles fleet

Go green as you commute around Sharjah, with a new on-demand ride-hailing service that will deploy a fleet of electric vehicles (EVs) across the emirate. The Sharjah Roads and Transport Authority (SRTA) has partnered with ION, a UAE-based sustainable mobility firm, to launch the new EV ride-hailing service by the end of the year. Tesla Model S and Model 3 are among the vehicles that can be booked through a mobile application. Announced on Wednesday, World Electric Vehicle Day, the service will initially be available in Sharjah and will be expanded to the rest of the UAE. Through this new ride-hailing app, passengers will not only be able to track the vehicles they booked - they will also be able to keep a tab on their positive carbon impact by
