Zoomcar Launches Chauffeur-Driven Cab Service in Bengaluru
Zoomcar, a leader in India’s car-sharing market, has expanded its offerings by introducing a new service, Zoomcar Cabs, in Bengaluru as part of a pilot programme. This marks a significant step for the company, moving beyond its self-drive rental model to provide convenient chauffeur-driven rides at competitive prices.
The new service is designed to cater to a range of travel needs, including business trips, leisure getaways, and daily commutes. One of the standout features of Zoomcar Cabs is the ability to choose from a wide array of vehicles, including hatchbacks, sedans, and SUVs. Customers can even select specific car models, which is often not an option with other cab services. This flexibility provides a more personalised travel experience, making it especially appealing to those who prefer a particular type of car for their journey. In response to growing customer demand for more flexible and reliable travel options, the service enables users to manage their routes and destinations in real-time via the Zoomcar app. Unlike many other platforms, customers can add their starting location, make route changes, and set multiple stops without needing to update the app each time. This user-friendly approach enhances the overall experience, allowing for greater convenience and control over the journey.
Zoomcar’s pricing structure is another key feature that sets it apart from competitors. The company offers full transparency with no hidden charges, including driver allowances, fuel costs, and a fixed kilometre limit. This clarity helps users make informed decisions about their travel expenses, making the service an attractive option for both short-term and long-term rides, with bookings ranging from just two hours to as long as 30 days or more. Hiroshi Nishijima, CEO of Zoomcar, stated, “The launch of Zoomcar Cabs is a significant milestone for us. We have always focused on enhancing mobility solutions to meet the evolving needs of our customers, and this new service takes us a step further in offering convenience and flexibility for those who prefer the comfort of a chauffeur-driven vehicle.” As this service enters its pilot phase in Bengaluru, Zoomcar is set to address the growing demand for dynamic travel solutions, offering a new way for customers to travel in comfort and style across the city.
