Zoomcar, a leading marketplace for self-drive car sharing, has unveiled a new unified app designed to enhance the car-sharing experience for both Guests and Hosts. This app consolidates the functionalities of Zoomcar’s previous dual-app system into a single platform, streamlining operations and introducing over 10 feature upgrades.

Key Features and Enhancements:

• Unified App Experience: The new app merges the functionalities of the previous Guest and Host apps, allowing users to seamlessly switch between booking cars and managing listings. This integration caters to the significant overlap where over 40% of Guests are also car owners.

• Enhanced Guest Features: Guests will enjoy a more efficient booking process with a catalog of top-rated cars and a new 'Guest Favourites' section highlighting frequently booked and highly rated vehicles. This feature aims to simplify the car selection process with reliable reviews.

• Improved Host Controls: Hosts benefit from enhanced management tools, including the ability to oversee multiple car listings from a single tab, monitor real-time rankings, and set preferences for booking durations. New Hosts can also opt for GPS tracker and keyless entry device installations upon signing up.

Hiroshi Nishijima, CEO of Zoomcar, remarked, "We've been listening closely to our Hosts and have meticulously designed the unified app to offer more control and encourage car sharing as a growing business in India. The launch aligns with the rising demand for the Independence Day long weekend.”

Vishal Ramrakhyani, Head of Engineering at Zoomcar, added, "Our team has focused on customer feedback to develop an app that integrates all necessary functionalities for Guests and Hosts. Features like 'Guest Favourites' and streamlined listing controls are designed to enhance user experience."

Zoomcar's commitment to improving its services is reflected in its fiscal year report ending March 2024, which shows an increase in average trip ratings to 4.66 and a 12% rise in net revenue, reaching $9.90 million.

To experience the new unified app, download Zoomcar from the App Store or Google Play Store.
