Uber kicks off on-demand 24×7 ‘Auto Rentals’ in six Indian cities

Ride-hailing major Uber on Wednesday launched an on-demand 24×7 Auto Rentals service in Delhi NCR, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Chennai and Pune that will allow riders to make multiple stops along a journey.

The service allows riders to do more by the hour at an affordable price point of Rs 149 for a one-hour/10 km package, with the option of selecting from multiple hourly packages that can be booked up to a maximum of 8 hours.

“This is an India-first innovation and a prime example of how we leverage technology to benefit both riders and drivers,” Nitish Bhushan, Head of Marketplace & Categories, Uber India and South Asia, said in a statement.
