‘Selfdrive’ unveiled Mobility App, a reliable service to rent a car on demand. The app is a game-changer in the automobile rental industry, providing consumers with a simple, dependable, and convenient way on car rentals. The cutting-edge mobile app gives customers immediate access to the dealership fleet, allowing them to hire a car by the day, subscribe by the month, or lease a car for up to three years, giving them complete booking freedom.
The company has served over 50k consumers so far, with a 30 percent increase in customer base month over month in the last six months. The app is based on a patented tech foundation idea called Search – Select – Pay, which employs machine learning and artificial intelligence to match customers’ profiles with the automobiles they want to drive, making the selection process and car rental a completely smooth experience. This software, which is available for Android and iOS, allows users to choose from 65 different car models from 15 different car companies from 45 various locations in the UAE in under three hours. Nissan, Toyota, Mitsubishi, Renault, and other well-known brands are among those offered for hire.
Speaking about the launch of its app, Soham Shah, CEO, and Co-founder of Selfdrive, said, “As one of the largest car rental service providers in the UAE, we strive to offer exceptional service to our customers every step of the way. We bring together exclusive offers on the app starting from AED 49 per day and AED 999 per month. That’s not all. With the launch of ‘Lease Pro’in this app, users can now rent a brand new ‘Zero Km’car under its 12 – 24 – 36 months subscription that would be exclusively registered on demand by the car dealer.”
“The smart mobility platform is a testament of our commitment to curate best deals on cars direct from the dealership, whilst making it possible for anyone to rent a car on demand and get it delivered too. This alleviates the hassle of going through multiple car rental agencies to find the best car models and rates on offer” added Mr. Shah.
Selfdrive will host Expo 2020-related services on its automobile subscription platform, which will oversee special car models and deals for six months with no commitments and no early return penalty.
“The app is well equipped to align with the growing demand that EXPO 2020 will bring to the automotive sector in the country. We are confident that the app will hit its 500k mark in the first 90 days of its launch, given the digital rental and leasing business is set to grow with the UAE now being open to events,” concluded Mr. Shah.
The car rental market was worth USD 86 billion in 2020 and is predicted to grow to USD 131 billion by 2026, with a CAGR of over 7% during that time period.
Selfdrive, which began operations in 2017, is the UAE’s largest auto rental tech platform, with over 2000 cars on the road. It caters to 95 different nationalities and manages over USD 300 million in assets. The mobility platform has already partnered with the UAE’s top six banks to provide consumers with specific card discounts, making it more accessible. The software has opened up a new way for people to gain quick access to mobility, and it is a textbook example of disruptive technology.
