As Uber strikes million-dollar deals in China , it’s also celebrating a milestone in one of the first places it established itself: New York. The company has announced that it’s now delivered 100 million trips to users in the city, which explains why it’s investing deeply in things like global mapping — to the tune of $500 million . It’s not all happy mergers and expansion: the company is still fighting bans, suspensions and fines across the world; you’re still going to have to hire a normal taxi if you’re planning a trip to Hungary , for example. On June 30, 2012, we reached 1, 000 trips in NYC. Today, we reached 100, 000, 000. Where to next, New York? pic.twitter.com/s2a0ILX4GC — Uber NYC (@Uber_NYC) August 1, 2016 Source: Uber NYC (Twitter)
