Does Uber charge for multiple passengers?

For most Uber options, such as UberX and Uber Black, the price is for the ride and is not for each passenger. This means that as long as everyone can fit within the allotted capacity, the price is the same (as one). UberX and UberBlack can hold 4 passengers (not counting the driver).
