I have no idea. I think uber has a formula for whether or not to give a job to a bike or car based on a number of factors, distance, parking, traffic. From what i was reading online, bike deliverers make more money on average. Since you are paid per delivery, not hourly. I have a Toyota dolphin, it's a small RV, and no amount of money would be enough to make me drive it around Portland.
Oh, that sounds like it's a good deal for the company then or they wouldn't hire you (makes sense because cars aren't very efficient in dense urban areas compared to bikes). I love it when I see more sustainable business practices actually out-competing unsustainable ones.
