Get ready to ride in style India! Tomorrow, for one day only, we’ve added supercars to the Uber platform. On Wednesday, between 2PM-4PM, you will be able to request Lamborghinis and Ferraris to come pick you up for a quick spin around the block.
And what’s better? Hamleys is hooking you up with an #UberSUPERCAR for FREE!
How it works:
1. Download the Uber app for iPhone or Android
2. Move the slider over to “UberSUPERCAR” to request, pressing “Set Pickup Location”
3. If a car is available it will come directly to you and you will be off on a quick spin and selfies to show-off later
- It’ll be a short joy ride, not a means to connect you to your destination.
- #UberSUPERCAR will be available in Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai, Kolkata, Chandigarh, Jaipur.
- Demand for cars may be high and availability limited. It may take a couple of tries to find an available car. Please be patient!
Be sure to share your #UberSUPERCAR experience on Facebook.
Enjoy the ride!
The Uber India Team
Between 2.00PM-4.00PM, you can request an #UberSUPERCAR through the Uber app and a Ferrari or a Lamborghini will come to take you for a free spin. Except, they are just 1:18 scale models of the real deals. You can spread the rather elaborate blog among your car-crazy friends, or book a joyride for your friends and watch them get fooled, while you coil in laughter capturing it all for record-keeping.
The UberSUPERCAR button will be automatically activated for iPhone and Android app users at 2.00PM. Once you request for the supercar, the app will ask you to set your location. After you set your location, Uber will check if a car (toy car to be precise!) is available in that area, and will send it for a free spin.
Uber cheekily also says that they anticipate a huge demand, therefore users may not get a supercar on first request. So if you’re looking to prank someone, here’s an elaborate tailor-ready one from Uber! Additionally, the user who uses the Supercar prank gets a free ride worth Rs 600 for every ride a friend takes in the toy cars.
Uber has done similar unique initiative earlier with offering chopper rides (real ones!), or driving with puppies while simultaneously promoting pet adoption. Uber even got into the spirit of Holi this year and sent dholwalas along with snacks to Indian offices to celebrate the festival.
No supercars avail in Delhi/NCR
Was a marketing gimmick by Uber… Denting their own brand image

lambagenie? Whats that?
That being said it was available numerous times near Khar, Mumbai but after multiple attempts in trying to hail one I just gave up. It would goto the last stage of booking but then a message would show up that no supercars are available when in fact the supercar and its icon would remain on the map only to be available again.
