Zoomcar Holdings, Inc., India's leading car-sharing marketplace, has announced the launch of Zoomcar Cabs as a pilot in Bengaluru that provides commercial cars with professional drivers.
Expanding beyond its self-drive offerings, the expansion into chauffeur-driven services marks Zoomcar’s commitment to diversifying its offerings and enhancing customer experiences.
Connecting hosts with guests
Founded in 2013 and headquartered in Bengaluru, Zoomcar community connects Hosts with Guests, who choose from a selection of cars for use at affordable prices, promoting sustainable, smart transportation solutions in India.
Zoomcar said that in the current cab market, options are often limited only to selecting a car category like sedan, hatchback, etc, leaving customers uncertain about the exact car model or the condition of the car they will receive.
The company further said that its AI technology in cataloguing, pricing, and image enhancement ensures every inventory item is unique, so Guests have the benefit of selecting the exact car model, seeing reviews and ratings by other Guests, and car quality and condition preferences like a year make, age, boot space, etc.
Additionally, Guests simply need to add their pick-up or start location on the Zoomcar app and have full control of their stops, route, destination, etc, without the need to update it on the app.
Zoomcar Cabs offers the freedom to book a car for as little as two hours to extended periods of over 30 days, the release notes.
Leadership comments
Hiroshi Nishijima, CEO of Zoomcar, said: “The launch of Zoomcar Cabs reflects Zoomcar’s focus on listening to customer feedback and delivering tailored solutions with an added layer of transparency and flexibility that sets it apart from other apps. Guests can effortlessly book their preferred vehicles, whether for self-drive or with a driver, all through the single Zoomcar app – eliminating the need for multiple apps to meet their travel needs.”
