I have no idea, but spending on logistics is several orders of magnitude larger than on cars for hire.

  ...because "logistics" includes things like "giant trucks" and "warehouses", neither of which Uber is anywhere near qualified to do. People seem to lose their minds when companies get to a certain growth stage, assuming that "anything is possible now!", while ignoring the overwhelming amount of empirical evidence that the larger a company gets, the less likely it is to make dramatic shifts in business. Moreover, companies that don't focus like a laser on their core business tend to fail.
