In an effort to add more electric vehicles to its fleet, Uber has rolled out an option that allows users to select those vehicles. Starting Thursday, Uber's Comfort Electric option is being offered in an additional 15 U.S. cities. That brings the program to a total of 25 cities and states in North America. Uber's CEOtold CBS News' senior national and environmental correspondent Ben Tracy that there's an even bigger goal at play.
The company is also paying drivers a dollar for every EV trip they make and providing discounts on charging. Uber is partnering with Hertz to allow drivers to have the option of renting Teslas on a weekly or monthly basis. Uber driver Mallissa Gilgen has been participating in the program and renting a red Tesla since March. She said she has been making $200 more per week driving the Tesla and skipping out on California's high gas prices.
