Dubai, UAE, February 2025 –
As Ramadan approaches, SelfDrive Mobility, a leading mobility tech company and market pioneer in car rental and subscription services across the Middle East, anticipates a 30-35% surge in app-based bookings, driven by shifting mobility patterns, flexible work schedules, and an increase in social and family gatherings. The holy month brings a unique set of transportation needs, with individuals
frequently traveling for Iftar, Suhoor, prayers, and late-night outings, all of which contribute to a rise in short-term rental activity. In the same context, SelfDrive Mobility has also introduced a special Ramadan deal, that will offer customers a flat AED 200 discount on the total amount for monthly bookings on selected cars within the Selfdrive.ae fleet, if booked through the app.
Over the years, SelfDrive Mobility has observed a notable increase in app activity during Ramadan as more users seek convenient, hassle-free, and on-demand rental solutions. The mobility tech platform enables seamless booking, allowing users to browse, select, and confirm their rentals instantly, eliminating the need for physical paperwork and long waiting times.
In addition to local demand, tourist arrivals also see a sharp increase during Ramadan and Eid, as visitors from the GCC and beyond travel to the region for celebrations. Many international travelers prefer app-based rentals for their flexibility and ease of access, leading to a significant uptick in digital reservations. To meet this rising demand, SelfDrive Mobility is expanding its fleet, ensuring real-time vehicle availability, enhancing app performance, and launching exclusive Ramadan promotions to provide additional value.
With digital adoption continuing to grow and consumer preferences evolving, SelfDrive Mobility is well-positioned to cater to the increased demand, ensuring a seamless, tech-driven, and customer-centric rental experience throughout Ramadan and beyond.
