Quick commerce is evolving beyond groceries and gadgets—now, it’s bringing car test drives to your doorstep! Zepto, the 10-minute delivery startup, has teamed up with automaker Skoda to introduce a super-fast car test drive experience.
Not Car Delivery—Just a Test Drive!
Speculation ran wild when Zepto’s Instagram teaser hinted at car deliveries. The post featured a Zepto delivery partner with a Skoda Kushaq, stating: "Humare pass mixer hai, phone hai, tablet hai, aur abb…"
This led many to believe Zepto was delivering cars in 10 minutes, just like groceries. However, CEO Aadit Palicha quickly stepped in to clarify the situation. In a LinkedIn post, he confirmed that Zepto is not delivering cars—but rather, offering 10-minute test drives in collaboration with Skoda.
How Does It Work?
Users can now book a Skoda test drive through Zepto, and within 10 minutes, a car will arrive at their doorstep. This eliminates the hassle of visiting a showroom, allowing potential buyers to experience the vehicle at their convenience.
This move signals a bold new direction for Zepto, which has already expanded its offerings from groceries to electronics and personal care items. Now, by stepping into automobile test drives, Zepto is reshaping how people interact with big-ticket purchases.
What’s Next for Zepto?
With this pilot launch featuring Skoda, Zepto could soon partner with more automobile brands, bringing a new level of speed and convenience to car shopping. If successful, this initiative could redefine car test drives—making them as quick and seamless as ordering food.
Would You Try It?
Zepto’s 10-minute car test drive has already sparked massive interest online. But would you be comfortable booking a test drive through an app instead of visiting a showroom?
