inDrive,
a global mobility and urban services platform operating across 46 countries globally
including 9 countries in Africa has been named as the world’s second most
downloaded ride-hailing app in 2023, retaining this accolade for a second
consecutive year, according to data.ai.
The
platform also achieved a notable milestone, ranking as the fourth most downloaded
application worldwide in the Travel category.
Total
downloads of the inDrive app amounted to 66.6 million in 2023, based on Google
Play and App Store (China is iOS only) data.ai said.
InDrive continues to enjoy robust growth as it
adds new services, including finance, freight, and courier delivery. It's also
expanding its core ridesharing offering to new geographies. Over the past year,
inDrive launched in more than 8 cities across Africa, as well as two in the
U.S. region. Furthermore, inDrive has agreed to start adding electric
motorcycles to its fleet in the APAC region and has obtained the local
regulator’s permission to offer its services there. While scaling quickly,
inDrive leverages its unique peer-to-peer pricing model to challenge the lack
of affordable transportation options and limited earning opportunities, thereby
addressing various types of injustice. This remains inDrive’s overarching
mission.
Arsen Tomsky, inDrive founder and CEO, said: "We are delighted that inDrive has
maintained its position as the second most downloaded ride-hailing app
globally, a testament to the incredible efforts of our team and the trust our
users place in us. At inDrive, our super mission is to challenge injustice, and
we remain steadfast in our commitment to providing reliable mobility services
at a fair price, as we create meaningful earning opportunities for people
across communities where we operate. As we celebrate this milestone, we remember
that we measure inDrive's success not simply by the number of downloads, but by
the wider impact we make on our communities and the world at large."
inDrive was also the most downloaded
ride-hailing app in 13 countries with a combined population of over 559
million in 2023, including markets like Pakistan, Columbia, Egypt, Peru
