What Our Guests Say
Rohit S. • Lalpur, Ranchi • ★★★★★ • Feb 2025
Booked a Hyundai Creta for a 3-day Deoghar trip. The host was incredibly helpful, the car was spotless. KYC took 8 minutes flat. No hidden charges. Will definitely use Drigo again for our next trip to Betla.
Priya M. • Morabadi, Ranchi • ★★★★★ • Jan 2025
Finally a self drive service that works in Ranchi! Picked up a Maruti Baleno at 5 AM for an airport run. Host was on time, car was clean and full tank. Much cheaper than an Ola for the whole day.
Arjun K. • Doranda, Ranchi • ★★★★★ • Dec 2024
Rented the Mahindra Thar for a weekend trip to Hundru Falls and Dassam Falls. Absolutely brilliant car for the terrain. The process was seamless — digital KYC, UPI payment, smooth handover.
Sunil T. • Saheed Nagar, Bhubaneswar • ★★★★★ • Mar 2025
Used Drigo for a Bhubaneswar to Puri day trip with my family. Creta was perfect — smooth drive on NH316, plenty of space for luggage. The host coordinated everything on WhatsApp professionally.
Neha R. • Harmu, Ranchi • ★★★★☆ • Nov 2024
Good experience overall. Booked a Swift for a day trip to Kanke Dam and Pahari Mandir. Car was clean and well-maintained. Return was smooth. Minor suggestion: a self-inspection photo option at pickup would be even better.
Vikash J. • Bistupur, Jamshedpur • ★★★★★ • Jan 2025
Drigo in Jamshedpur is a game changer. Rented the Mahindra Scorpio for a Dalma Wildlife Sanctuary trip — 7 of us had a blast. Cheaper than hiring a vehicle and we got to go at our own pace.
Deepa P. • Khandagiri, Bhubaneswar • ★★★★★ • Feb 2025
Very safe and trustworthy. I was nervous about my first self drive rental but the Drigo host walked me through everything patiently. The Hyundai Creta was in perfect condition. Highly recommend.
Amit G. • Namkum, Ranchi • ★★★★★ • Oct 2024
Monthly rental in Ranchi with Drigo saved me over ₹8,000 vs hiring a daily driver for the month. The process is very transparent — no surprises at the end. Will continue using for monthly bookings.
Ritu S. • Pandra, Ranchi • ★★★★★ • Mar 2025
Excellent service for my interview day trip. Booked a Swift at 7 AM, had a stress-free drive to the venue. No cab cancellations, no surge pricing. Drigo is now my go-to for important appointments.
Mohit D. • Hinoo, Ranchi • ★★★★☆ • Feb 2025
Solid rental for a day trip to Netarhat. The Innova Crysta was very comfortable for the mountain roads. A small scratch from the previous renter was noted at pickup — the host documented it properly so no issues at return.
Drigo Reviews — FAQs
Are Drigo reviews genuine?
Yes. All reviews on Drigo are from verified guests who have completed a booking through the platform. Every reviewer has gone through Cashfree Secure ID digital KYC and has personally rented and returned a vehicle. Reviews are not incentivised or filtered — positive and constructive feedback both appear.
How do I leave a review on Drigo?
After your rental is completed and the car is returned, Drigo will send you a WhatsApp message or app notification with a review link. You can rate your experience (1–5 stars) and leave a text review. Your review is linked to your verified booking. You can also share your experience on Google Maps by searching 'Drigo Ranchi' or 'Drigo Bhubaneswar'.
Is Drigo safe to use?
Yes. Drigo is safe for several reasons: (1) all renters undergo digital KYC via Cashfree Secure ID — Aadhaar, Driving Licence, PAN, and selfie verification; (2) all hosts are verified and their vehicles are inspected; (3) every rental is documented with a rental agreement; (4) WhatsApp support is available 24/7 for any issue during your rental; (5) vehicle insurance is maintained for all cars on the platform. Drigo has served 200+ guests across Ranchi, Bhubaneswar, and Jamshedpur with a 4.8★ average rating.
Why is it important to understand the price structure when renting a car?
Understanding the full price before confirming saves you from billing surprises. With Drigo, the price shown on the listing page is the all-in amount — vehicle rental + taxes; no booking fee or hidden insurance surcharge is added at checkout. Before confirming any booking check: (1) what is included in the base rate (km allowance, insurance, AC, fuel policy); (2) the security deposit amount (₹3,000–₹5,000) and refund timeline (48 hrs on Drigo); (3) the overage km rate (₹8–10/km on Drigo after 250 km/day); (4) the fuel policy — return the car at the same level received. The invoice you receive from Drigo matches exactly what you agreed to online.
How do some rental companies use vague or misleading pricing?
Common tactics to watch for: (1) 'Starting from' banners that show only the cheapest off-peak rate — the car you actually want costs more; (2) a booking fee or convenience fee added at checkout after you've already selected the car; (3) an insurance surcharge listed only on the payment screen; (4) a low base rate with a very low km cap and a high per-km overage charge; (5) deposit amount not disclosed on the listing page. On Drigo, the listing price includes all applicable taxes, no booking fee is added at checkout, and the km allowance (250/day), overage rate (₹8–10/km), and deposit (₹3,000–₹5,000) are stated upfront on every listing.
How can you check if a rental company can provide cars for immediate booking?
On Drigo: select your pickup date and time on drigo.in — available cars for those exact dates appear in real time. If a car shows 'Book Now' with a fixed price, it is available for immediate booking — no lead form or callback. Booking confirmation arrives via WhatsApp within minutes of payment. For same-day bookings, message the Drigo team on WhatsApp (+91 95720 90249) directly — the team confirms real-time availability and can arrange handover within 1–2 hours across most Ranchi, Bhubaneswar, and Jamshedpur locations.
What should you watch out for regarding immediate car availability?
Things to verify before assuming a car is available: (1) the listing shows 'Book Now' for your specific dates, not just 'Inquire'; (2) you receive a WhatsApp confirmation immediately after payment — that is your confirmed booking; (3) for same-day bookings, message the team on WhatsApp first to confirm the exact car and pickup time; (4) during peak periods (Shravan month, long weekends, Dussehra, Christmas), popular models like the Thar and Scorpio N fill up days in advance — book 3–5 days ahead; (5) if your preferred model is unavailable, Drigo offers an equivalent upgrade or a full refund — check this policy before booking.
Why should you carefully review the rental company's website before booking?
A few minutes of pre-booking review prevents most post-trip surprises. On Drigo's listing pages look for: (1) the all-in price including taxes — not just a base rate; (2) km allowance per day (Drigo: 250 km) and overage rate (₹8–10/km); (3) security deposit amount (₹3,000–₹5,000) and refund timeline (48 hrs); (4) fuel policy — return at the same level; (5) cancellation policy — free up to 24 hrs before pickup on Drigo; (6) minimum age requirement (21 years) and licence requirement (LMV, min. 1 year old). If any of these details are not clearly stated on the listing page, ask before paying.
Why is it beneficial to choose a car rental provider with a large fleet?
A larger fleet means: (1) availability — your chosen model is less likely to be booked out, especially during peak seasons (Shravan, Dussehra, New Year); (2) choice — match the car to the trip: a Swift for city errands, a Thar for Hundru Falls, an Innova Crysta for a 7-person Deoghar pilgrimage, all on the same platform; (3) competitive pricing — more supply keeps rates honest; (4) flexibility on short notice — if your plans change, another option is available quickly. Drigo's fleet across Ranchi, Bhubaneswar, and Jamshedpur covers hatchbacks from ₹999/day to premium SUVs and 7-seaters, with both manual and automatic options across all segments.
How can you sort car rental options by price or transmission type on Drigo?
On drigo.in, browse any city page (e.g., drigo.in/ranchi or drigo.in/bhubaneswar) and use the available filters: sort by price (low to high or high to low) to see the most budget-friendly options first; filter by transmission (automatic or manual) to see only cars matching your preference; filter by car type (hatchback, sedan, SUV, 7-seater). Reset all filters anytime to see the full fleet. This lets you quickly compare a ₹1,400/day Kwid Automatic against a ₹3,000/day Hyundai Creta or a ₹5,000/day Mahindra Thar without scrolling through irrelevant listings.

Every Drigo rental comes standard with: air conditioning; choice of petrol or diesel (listed on each car's page); manual or automatic transmission (filterable at listing stage); 250 km/day included; valid comprehensive motor insurance and PUC certificate. Select models offer: sunroof (Kia Sonet, Kia Carens, Hyundai Creta variants); 4x4 off-road capability (Mahindra Thar); USB charging and touchscreen infotainment (most modern models). Seating ranges from 4 (hatchbacks/sedans) to 7 (Innova, Ertiga, XL6, Carens). If a specific feature is essential for your trip, check the individual listing or confirm with the team on WhatsApp before booking.
Are both manual and automatic transmission cars available for rent in Bhubaneswar?
Yes — both are available on Drigo in Bhubaneswar. Automatic options include: Tata Punch Automatic, Hyundai Exter Automatic, Maruti Swift Automatic, Suzuki Baleno Automatic, Hyundai Venue Automatic, Kia Sonet Automatic (sunroof), Hyundai Creta Automatic, Kia Carens Automatic, Maruti XL6 Automatic. Manual options are available across the same categories at similar or slightly lower prices. Use the transmission filter on drigo.in/bhubaneswar to view only automatic or only manual options. Automatics are particularly popular for city driving in Bhubaneswar — especially on the NH316 corridor and Old Town area with frequent traffic stops.
What hidden charges or unclear pricing should customers look out for when renting a car?
On Drigo, the price shown at checkout equals what you pay — no booking fee, no convenience fee, no insurance surcharge added after car selection. Specifically: (1) the deposit (₹3,000 for hatchbacks/sedans, ₹5,000 for SUVs) is shown on every listing page before you book and is 100% refundable within 48 hours; (2) the km allowance (250 km/day) and overage rate (₹8–10/km) are published upfront; (3) fuel is the only renter-borne running cost — return at the same level received; (4) traffic challans issued during your booking are your responsibility. The only unexpected charge that can arise is km overage — check your daily allowance and plan your route before booking.
How to ensure a smooth and convenient car rental experience in Bhubaneswar?
Practical steps: (1) book 2–3 days ahead for weekend trips to Puri, Konark, or Chilika to secure your preferred model; (2) complete KYC upload (DL + Aadhaar) at least an hour before pickup; (3) confirm pickup time and exact delivery address with the team on WhatsApp the evening before; (4) at pickup, record a walkaround video — all four sides, fuel gauge, and odometer; (5) save the Drigo WhatsApp number (+91 95720 90249) for any roadside queries; (6) return the car with the fuel level you received it; (7) be present for the drop-off walkaround video to ensure the deposit refund is processed promptly. The Bhubaneswar–Puri drive (60 km via NH316) and the Konark circuit (~90 km) are the most popular Drigo day-trip routes in Odisha.
What are some tips to improve your car rental experience in Bhubaneswar?
Key tips: (1) review the full price breakdown on the listing page before confirming — vehicle rate, km allowance, and deposit; (2) choose the right car — a Creta or Innova for NH316 highway comfort to Puri, a Thar if heading off-road; (3) book with a provider with a wide fleet so you have genuine choice and are not forced to accept a substitute; (4) record a timestamped walkaround video at pickup and return — this prevents post-trip damage disputes; (5) check the cancellation policy — Drigo offers free cancellation up to 24 hours before pickup; (6) for multi-day Puri + Konark + Chilika trips, estimate your total km against the 250 km/day allowance or arrange an unlimited-km add-on in advance.
How can you ensure the price quoted for a rental car is all-inclusive?
On Drigo, the checkout total displays vehicle rate + applicable GST — no additional fee is added at the payment step. Before paying, confirm: (1) the price includes the daily km allowance (250 km/day) and you understand the overage rate (₹8–10/km); (2) the security deposit amount is shown clearly and is refundable within 48 hours; (3) insurance is included — all Drigo vehicles carry comprehensive motor insurance, so no separate insurance purchase is needed; (4) there is no booking fee — the amount at checkout is the total due. If anything looks different from the listing price, message the team on WhatsApp (+91 95720 90249) before completing payment.
