eZhire Launches Instant Car Delivery: A Major Leap Toward The Future of Mobility
From the very beginning, eZhire was founded on a bold promise — to make car rental truly on-demand and completely hassle-free. In pursuit of this vision, we intentionally broke away from the outdated practices of traditional rental companies and built a service experience designed for the modern customer.
Pioneering the Future of Car Rentals
eZhire has led the way with several groundbreaking initiatives that transformed the car rental experience:
- First-ever rental app in the region.
- On-demand car delivery to any location.
- No deposits required, ever.
- Fully paperless transactions.
- Technology driven Infrastructure for seamless operations.
From the outset, our backend architecture was built as a network of decoupled, configurable microservices. This modular approach has empowered us to quickly introduce new systems and features, scale efficiently, and stay agile in a fast-evolving market.
Redefining “On-Demand”
While eZhire has long been the only true on-demand car rental service — delivering cars in as little as 45 minutes to 2 hours — we’ve always aimed higher. We envisioned a future where renting a car could be as fast and frictionless as booking a taxi.
Achieving faster delivery unlocks tremendous value:
- For customers: spontaneous rentals become possible with minimal planning.
- For operations: better fleet utilization and logistics efficiency.
- For business: improved revenue and enhanced unit economics.
Instant Delivery powered by eZhire Inhouse AI: The Next Chapter
After years of dedicated engineering and operational innovation, we are proud to announce a major milestone: Instant Delivery by eZhire.
Launched on August 5, 2025, this feature enables car deliveries in as little as 10 to 30 minutes, with a roadmap to bring this down to under 10 minutes through continued optimization.
This isn’t just faster — it’s transformational. With instant delivery, eZhire moves one step closer to becoming the go-to mobility platform of the future.
The Project
The project was named as “Project 10” as we aim to deliver the car within 10 minutes. Developing instant delivery in the car rental industry is not an easy task,Logistically and technically It's very complicated and costly, so we built our internal systems with open source technologies to have the flexibility, scalability and cost effectiveness. Logistically we opened our dispatch centers that will serve the instant delivery demands, while keeping the future load on the MRN(Marketplace).
For instant delivery 5 of our internal systems and multiple external APIs are integrated to show the exact time per car category to the customer in the App. Optimizations to calculate the best route within 1 second and make it cost efficient was a big challenge for us. Following is just a high level graph that shows the complexity
Built for an Autonomous Future
By establishing an infrastructure capable of ultra-fast, location-based vehicle delivery, eZhire is also laying the groundwork for a fully autonomous, driverless future.
As self-driving technology matures, eZhire’s systems — from automated dispatch to real-time logistics and seamless app-based experience — are already designed to integrate with autonomous fleets. Instant delivery is not just a new feature; it's a strategic enabler for operating and scaling a driverless car rental service, ensuring we remain at the forefront of the mobility revolution.
