Ola unveils 'Ola Pro' service with super-sanitised in-car experience

Ola has unveiled Ola Pro, which starts in Sydney, Australia. During the coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic, this service has been launched to help people who need a super-sanitised rideshare option for travel.

Ola Pro launches a fleet of specially fitted out cars that follow strict hygiene and safety standards, besides a premium in-car experience. It is available for people seeking extra assurance, like those working with at-risk community members.

Simon Smith, Managing Director of Ola Australia, said, “At Ola, we pride ourselves in providing a safe high-quality experience for all our riders and driver-partners. Today, we take that commitment one step further with the launch of Ola Pro. Ola Pro is designed to help people looking for some extra peace of mind with a transport option to get them from A to B as safely as possible.”

Ola Pro features vehicles fitted with a transparent plastic barrier separating the driver and rider. Its vehicles are sanitised after every trip by drivers and professionally sanitised every week.

“Not only do we want to protect our customers, but we also want to protect our drivers. Our drivers have been struggling like many other small business people during this crisis and Ola Pro gives them the opportunity to continue to work, while providing a vital community service,” Smith added.
