What is Yulu?

Yulu is a Micro Mobility Platform service with a mission to solve first mile, last mile and short distance commute problem in urban cities and doing so in a sustainable manner by providing smart electric MMV (Micro Mobility Vehicles).

Commuting via Yulu not only helps reduce traffic congestion but also controls air pollution, thereby making your city a better place to live in.

How does Yulu work?

Yulu uses MMVs which are custom designed for Indian roads and fitted with a secure lock system. Each vehicle is integrated with a smartphone app which gives you, as a rider, better access, and convenience to take a ride right when you need it.

To ensure convenience and better accessibility, we have created designated Yulu Zones in the cities we serve. A Yulu MMV can be picked up from anywhere in the city but must be dropped at Yulu Zones only. An active ride will not end outside a Yulu Zone.
