Do Uber drivers make more money with electric cars?

I have been thinking about buying an electric car, and I was thinking about driving for Uber to help offset the cost. Can you make more money driving for Uber if you’re in an electric car?

Buying an
electric car
is a great way to go green, and companies like
Uber
do have several perks in place for drivers of electric cars to encourage eco-friendly choices.
Drivers of fully electric cars in the United States and Canada are eligible for the Zero Emissions incentive, which allows them to earn an extra $1 for every ride, or up to $4,000 annually.
If you’re going to be driving for a rideshare company, you’re going to need a great
car insurance
plan that has you covered.
