Available in New York City and Los Angeles, this service eliminates the need to carry your own car seat, making urban travel easier and less stressful for parents and caregivers.
Uber has partnered with Nuna, a leading car seat manufacturer, to equip Uber Car Seat vehicles in New York City and Los Angeles with high-quality and stylish Nuna car seats. When you choose Uber Car Seat, you’ll be using the Nuna RAVA convertible car seat, suitable for children weighing between 5 and 65 lbs. The Nuna RAVA is designed for comfort and ease of use, featuring ample legroom, simple adjustments, and a straightforward installation system.
To celebrate the launch of this service, Uber offered a promotion of up to $10 off two Car Seat rides in New York City or Los Angeles using the code CARSEAT2024 from March 26 to April 21. This offer encouraged families to explore their cities and visit kid-friendly locations like Union Square Play and The Wonder in NYC, sometimes unlocking special discounts at these venues when arriving via Uber Car Seat.
