The OKKO filling station network and the Ukrainian online car calling service Uklon expanded their partnership in 2025 to support an inclusive class of cars for passengers using wheeled seats. During the year, OKKO provides fuel to 6 such vehicles that are already operating in Kyiv. In total, the company allocates more than 50 thousand liters of diesel fuel for these purposes.. In 2024, more than 1,600 Kiev residents used the inclusive class car call service.

The partnership between OKKO and Uklon began in January 2024, when the network allocated 3.5 million hryvnia for the purchase and equipment of three inclusive cars for Lviv and provided them with fuel for 1.5 years. The demand for this service is growing steadily, so the companies agreed to continue its development. Today, inclusive cars perform more than 200 flights monthly in Lviv and more than 900 in Kyiv. The most popular destinations remain trips to hospitals, train stations, shopping centers and cultural institutions.

“It is impossible to solve all the problems of the still barrier society in one day, but gradually and systematically is a very real task for all of us. This project is a good example of how socially responsible companies, by joining forces, can develop inclusive infrastructure in the country, beyond their offices, gas stations, etc.. After all, this is our common environment in which we, our children, veterans will live. Last year we joined the project, purchasing cars and providing fuel for Lviv, and this year we are supporting Kyiv. This is not only a useful thing, but also a logical continuation of our social responsibility program,” says Yaroslava Polyakova, director of corporate communications at OKKO.. " We at Uklon strive to make comfortable and affordable transport for everyone. Our partnership with OKKO demonstrates how joint efforts of business can change cities, making them more convenient for all residents. We are grateful to OKKO for supporting this project and are confident that together we can do even more to build a barrier-free future in Ukraine,” said Sergey Grishkov, CEO of Uklon. Trips can be ordered both within Lviv and Kyiv, and in their surroundings within a radius of up to 20 kilometers. In 2024, 2,212 trips with a total mileage of 17,282 kilometers were carried out in Lviv as part of this service.. In Kyiv, during the same period, 10,961 trips were completed, and the total mileage was 146,430 kilometers (distance of orders).



Let us remind you that inclusive class cars are equipped with everything necessary for the safe and comfortable movement of passengers with musculoskeletal disorders. They are equipped with hydraulic or mechanical lifts, ramps, special seat belts and mountings for wheeled seats. All drivers working in this service have undergone special training from the Affordable initiative. U.A.. In addition to transportation services, drivers help carry luggage or personal belongings if the passenger is traveling unaccompanied.
