Uber, the most popular ridesharing app in India, announced the opening of its premium Uber Black category. With this new addition, Uber is attempting to meet the growing demand from Indian clients for premium offerings and raise the bar for on-demand mobility in high-end vehicles.

Uber Black has a selection of padded features that are intended to enhance the travel experience with unmatched comfort, elegance, and practicality.

Some of the features are:

• Experience the magic of on-demand mobility for people who seek a luxurious experience.
• New, higher-end cars to assure constant vehicle quality.
• Top-rated drivers, educated by our fleet partners.
• In-app booking while keeping passenger comfort front and center.

Travelers will have access to in-car comforts and personalized choices while traveling, guaranteeing a continuously excellent experience. Uber Black offers a customized travel experience with adaptable features like temperature control, luggage assistance, and quiet mode. To maximize productivity, you can request a quiet ride—one without music or chat with the driver—if you’re on a conference call while commuting to work. Before you get in the car, you can choose to turn up or down the air conditioning. Longer wait periods give riders a 5-minute extra window for pickup without having to pay a waiting fee, giving them more flexibility. The guesswork for drivers hoping to provide a five-star ride is also eliminated by these additional features.

Prabhjeet Singh, President, of Uber India and South Asia, said, “We are excited to reintroduce Uber Black in a completely new guise to better serve Indian consumers’ changing needs and offer the business class of rear seats on Indian roadways. With Black, the largest on-demand mobility network, we are delivering the magic of reliable, superior comfort and cutting-edge matching, routing, and pricing technology, together with scaled fleet operations. Uber aims to serve the entire spectrum of users, from those looking for inexpensive two- or three-wheeled trips to those desiring a genuinely well-appointed experience in premium vehicles, since it is India’s top multimodal mobility provider”.
