BlaBlaCar ride sharing app India

Travelling from one place to another just got easier. A Europe based company has launched a ride-sharing app to cheaply get users from one city to another. The app is expected to soon make its way into the Indian roads.

The mobile app called BlaBlaCar connects people looking for travel options with drivers who have empty seats in their vehicle so that they can share their costs. The app basically caters to long distance travel.

The app is available free of cost for iOS and Android devices.

The app not only helps you find a ride but also lets you offer one if you want to share your trip with passengers and lower your fuel costs. The number of seats and price per seat one can offer are limited because BlaBlaCar has been made for drivers to offset their fuel costs and not to earn profits.

According to Nicolas Brusson, Co-founder of BlaBlaCar, their company is currently looking at emerging markets like India, Turkey and Brazil as their app would help in decreasing the transport problems in these countries to a great extent.



BlaBlaCar’s intelligent and easy to use features makes organizing transport simpler, quicker and more reliable.  The app is safe to use as each member has a verified social profile that allows a user to go through the details of their travel partner before personally contacting them to organize a car share.

The app is backed by the trust of its millions and millions customers. The company has served around 8 million people in about 12 countries till date.

BlaBlaCar also comes with a price calculator which automatically calculates a recommended price for every journey. This ensures that the driver doesn’t charge more than running costs.  The app has maps which show you your departure and arrival points clearly so that there is no confusion during travel.

The app also has an internal messaging feature which allows easy and direct contact between people organizing the trip. It even has a tap to call feature through which you can call a member straight through the app in a single tap.

BlaBlaCar has made travel worry free and affordable and is very popular among students and professionals in the twelve countries that it has been launched so far. The app has also introduced a ladies only feature where members can plan a car share where both drivers and all passengers are women.
