Description
Think of NewMo as a whole new way to get around Newton — a ridesharing service that’s smart, easy, affordable, and green.
With a few taps, book an on-demand ride in the app and our technology will pair you with other people headed your way. No detours, no delays.
How it works:
- Book a ride on your phone.
- Get picked up on a nearby corner.
- Share your ride with others.
- Save cash and reduce carbon emissions.
What we’re about:
SHARED.
Our corner-to-corner algorithm matches people headed in the same direction. This means you’re getting the convenience and comfort of a private ride with the efficiency, speed, and affordability of a public one.
AFFORDABLE.
Aggregating people into one vehicle brings down prices. Whether you are an eligible senior or a commuter in Newton, rides will always be a flat low fee.
SUSTAINABLE.
Sharing rides reduces the number of vehicles on the roads, bringing down congestion and CO2 emissions. With a couple of taps, you get to do your part to make your city a little bit greener and cleaner, every time you ride.

Ratings and Reviews
NewMo
I appreciate NewMo -very much
I’ve been using it for 6 to 8 months. It’s very easy to book a ride. drivers are courteous and friendly and prompt. Very helpful to get around in Newton for someone without a car. I also ride the 59 bus and I take the green line to work inBack Bay

Long wait times and rides
It’s a great idea to do a ride share in Newton to reduce traffic, which is much needed. Unfortunately, to cover the size of Newton (geographically big!) we need more drivers. The wait times are so long that many don’t want to use them.
Secondly, the GPS app they use is extremely inefficient. Last time, it took us in completely the wrong direction down Route 9 during stop and go rush hour traffic, just to come back to near the starting spot. Added about 15 min to the trip!
Horribly unreliable for a timely commute
I was super excited when I found this app as I thought it would be an inexpensive way to get to and from the T in order to get to and from my university in Boston. Unfortunately the past few days the only ride options have consistently been over 30 minutes away. In addition the app consistently underestimates how long it will take for the driver to get to the pickup point. This morning it was so bad that I would’ve missed my first class if I hadn’t been able to get my boyfriend to drop me off.
