South Africa, Uber Car Requirements

List of Uber Approved Cars in Cape Town, South Africa (152 Vehicles)

111 Comments

 

 

Are you at the point where you want to buy a car for Uber, but can’t seem to get the list of approved Uber vehicles? In response to numerous requests for the List of Uber cars (UberX and Uber Black) in Cape Town, South Africa, we put together an unofficial master list containing 152 Uber approved vehicles in Cape Town,South Africa.

The list below contains the following – Uber Approved Service, Make, and Model of the Vehicle. For some of the data we marked it as N/A – meaning we could not find it, or it does not exist! Assume all cars listed in the table below, as at the time of this posting to be at most 4 years old (in order to be approved for Uber use)- I.e. For any car on this list to be approved, they need to be a 2012 model or newer.

Note – if a car is approved for Uber Black, it is generally automatically approved to make UberX pickups (if the driver desires). For Uber Cape Town, South Africa note the key difference(s) between UberX and Uber Black at the blog posts below.

  1. Hi I have a Toyota corolla professional 2011. Will it be approved on the Uber service as a partner driver?

  3. Hi
    I have a Citroen c4 2006 model, Renault Sandero 2011, and a BMW 525i 1995, with only 170 000km. immaculate! Could they qualify as vehicles for uber?

    1. Based on the ages of the vehicles you mentioned, the “Renault Sandero 2011” might be the only one that could potentially qualify as a valid Uber vehicle. Send an email to partnerscapetown@uber.com and they should be able to give you a definitive answer on that one particular car. The other cars are too old.

  41. I read somewhere that you don’t accept hatchbacks, so my 2005 Ford Fiesta Ghia probably won’t qualify. Could you inform me on the reasoning behind the no hatchback rule?
