Uber has introduced a motorcycle taxi service in the congested streets of Bangkok.
优步在拥堵成患的泰国首都曼谷推出了“摩托出租车”服务。
The move is an effort to counter what rival ride-hailing apps are doing -- competitor Grab already offers a motorcycle option in the Thai capital, called GrabBike.
优步的竞争对手、打车软件公司“Grab”已经先于优步推出了这种服务——“GrabBike”,于是优步赶紧跟上。
It isn't Uber's first go at motorcycles. In 2017, the company launched a moto-taxi option in Paris for a few weeks as a short-term experiment. It hasn't tried another motorcycle feature until the Bangkok one, which it has designed for cities in developing countries like Thailand, according to spokesman Karun Arya.
但此举对优步来说并不新鲜。2017年,优步就曾在巴黎短期试水过“摩的”,但运行几周后就销声匿迹了。不过据优步发言人卡伦·艾尔亚透露,公司其实一直考虑在泰国等发展中国家的城市推出这一服务。
"Two-wheel transportation is a form of mobility for millions and millions of people," he said.
他认为:“对数以百万计的城市人口来说,两轮交通工具是不错的出行选择。”
Motorbike rides can now be requested like any other Uber taxi on the app in three central Bangkok neighborhoods, and the driver will even show up with a helmet for the passenger.
