Uber launches in Newcastle, its sixth UK city

*


Uber is slowly but surely making inroads in Britain. Today, the company is launching its low-cost UberX service in Newcastle, allowing passengers to request a Toyota Prius (or a similarly specced vehicle) to get around town. It's the sixth UK city for Uber, following London, Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham and Wakefield. Only a week ago the company launched its premium UberExec service in Manchester and Leeds; we wouldn't be surprised if a similar expansion was already being prepared for "the Toon." Where will Uber strike next? If its job listings are anything to go by, Glasgow and Edinburgh. Now that the company is starting to conquer England, it seems Scotland is next on its hit-list.
