It’s unknown whether the benefits offered
by Uber Comfort will be enough to convince
riders to cough up more cash. A five-year-old
car is not really “newer,” it’s more “middle aged,”
said Morgan. And at 6 feet, 5 inches tall, the
additional legroom wouldn’t really be enough
for Morgan — but it might be sufficient for
people who are average height, he said.
“They might try it once and see if it’s that much
more of an improvement and worth it,” Morgan
said. “If they can’t deliver it and it’s not that much
more comfortable, then it’s like well, I’m not
really going to pay up for it.”
