Is Uber more expensive in Mexico?

Uber in Mexico City is SUPER cheap when compared to Uber in New York or Ubers that I've taken in the UK. If you are going from Condesa to Roma, it will probably cost about 40 pesos or just over $2. If you are going from Polanco or Condesa to the Centro Historico, it might cost up to 80 or 90 pesos, which is about $4.
