By operating a growing fleet of over 1,000 vehicles in the UAE, it is optimizing the way people move around the UAE. The platform is known for its innovative approach to mobility through its free float fleet approach, which gives access to its fleet and vehicle rental services on per-minute and per-day rental models. Udrive has thus been successful in establishing a loyal customer base, notably in resident expats based in the UAE.
