Zoomcar Holdings, the self-drive car sharing in India, has partnered with Wego, one of the top travel apps and the largest online travel marketplace in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), to offer seamless access to self-drive rentals for travellers exploring India.
This partnership comes at a pivotal moment in global tourism. With rising airfares, currency fluctuations, and tariff tensions between major economies causing uncertainty across global tourism and trade flows, travellers are shifting focus from long-haul luxury to cost-conscious, high-control experiences closer to home.
“We’re seeing a decisive shift in how people want to travel — flexibility, independence, and immersion matter more than ever,” said Anirudh Lamba, Head of Partnerships, Zoomcar.
“Our partnership with Wego helps us serve evolving travellers better, especially those coming from the Middle East and Southeast Asia who want to explore India on their own terms,” he added.
Bernard Corraya, General Manager, India, Wego said: “We are thrilled to partner with Zoomcar to bring greater convenience and control to travellers exploring India. This collaboration supports our mission to enhance every stage of the traveller’s journey from flight and stay to local mobility.”
Through this partnership, Wego users will now be able to:
-
Book from 25,000+ self-drive cars across 99+ cities in India directly via the Wego platform (website and app), with hyperlocal availability.
-
Enjoy a seamless booking process integrated into Wego’s global travel ecosystem.
According to Wego’s 2025 Q1 data, travel interest from GCC countries to India has surged by over 40% YoY, driven by family travel, medical tourism, and digital nomad movement.
Zoomcar’s data also reveals that travellers are increasingly choosing self-drive for longer duration itineraries especially during vacations and long weekends, valuing autonomy, privacy, and cost-effectiveness.
