The collaboration comes at a time when global travel costs are rising, making flexible and cost-effective transportation options more appealing.

- Zoomcar’s data shows that tourists increasingly prefer self-drive rentals for longer trips, particularly during vacations and extended weekends.  

Market Trends and Strategic Impact  
- Travel interest from Gulf Cooperation Council countries to India has surged by over 40 percent year-on-year, driven by family tourism, medical visits, and digital nomad movement.
