Drive Lah App Lets S’poreans Rent Cars AirBnb-Style

Airbnb revolutionised the travel industry by being one of the world’s first platforms to allow ordinary folk to borrow and rent out their homes.

Now, a local company, “Drive Lah” is entering the market to do the same, but for cars.

According to TODAY Online, Drive Lah allows you to not only to borrow a car, but to also earn passive income by renting out your own when it’s not in use.

Drive Lah app allows you to rent a car from $45/day

After deciding on your choice of car, you can drop the car owner a message, and you’re good to go.

Letting your car work for you

On the other hand, if you’re a car owner yourself who might be underutilising your vehicle, Drive Lah is allowing you to open for yourself a whole new income stream.

To list your car, you’ll first have to fill up location details and key in your car features.

After that, you can go through a set of car rules and decide how much you’ll be comfortable renting out your car for.

You’ll also need to upload a picture of your car, so make sure your car is squeaky clean because you’ll want your car to look chio.
