Hi OP - we were just in Paris for two weeks and used Uber Berline service several times. It's like Uber Black in the USA: we had a large Mercedes sedan most times, and a large Audi sedan once. All the cars were black, and all with drivers who were a cut above the regular Uber drivers in their demeanor and dress. Only difference perhaps that we never had a large SUV such as Lincoln Navigator Cadillac Escalade because I don't think anything equivalent exists in France.

Oh, and we have Tesla's as Uber cars out here in San Francisco pretty regularly.

And yes, they would all accommodate two large bags in the trunk/boot!
