Now the scheme is a huge hit in European Countries. I have travelled from Germany to France and Germany to Switzerland. The scheme found to be effective if you have no deadlines as some times the vehicle you can get cancelled or delayed. Same is very cost effective in countries like Germany as the Rail/Flight cost is very high which is different for India. I was able to travel in BMW’s and Audi which is a common man’s car in Germany J. I don’t think same will work in India. Whatever Welcome Bla Bla Car to Incredible India.
