 significant manual intervention to start the trip. A final key distinction with traditional 
 car rental service providers in our target emerging markets is that many remain focused on providing the vehicle alongside a chauffeured         
 driver, thereby adding to the expense of the car use.                                                                                            |

87 Evolving Consumer Expectations In parallel with the limitations of present mobility options in our target emerging markets, consumer expectations are also evolving, with discernible and dynamic shifts among tech-enabled emerging market populations. The following are some key developments that Zoomcar management views as shaping current evolutions in personal mobility:

| ● | Mobile-app-based, on-demand solutions                                                                                                          
 offer improved levels of customer convenience and flexibility. Over the past decade, mobile technology usage has proliferated across           
 our target emerging markets, and we believe consumers now expect digital access to a wide range of goods and services including dining,        
 personal shopping, travel and tourism, hospitality and entertainment services. Industries that were once largely offline have become more      
 digitally connected to their end consumers, thus creating expectation among consumers of on-demand access to transactions and services.        
 Successful businesses have effectively leveraged technology to provide personalized, dynamic experiences that adjust to meet the ever-evolving 
 needs of the consumer.                                                                                                                         |

| ● | Consumers have come to expect                                                                                                                
 seamless, frictionless mobility options as the default across our target emerging markets. We believe on-demand, hyper-local mobility        
 options are becoming readily available, standard experiences for consumers. Micro-mobility options, such as scooters and point-to-point      
 cab trips (ride-hailing) are examples of transportation services that have become or are becoming digitized across emerging market cities.   
 As these trends continue, we believe consumers expect agile, convenient modes of transportation, in contrast to legacy chauffeur driven      
 or traditional rent-a-car services. We believe that consumers are increasingly expecting a digitally enabled, frictionless travel experience 
 representing a fundamental paradigm shift from just a decade ago when consumer travel experiences such as ride-hailing and car rental        
 tended to occur primarily offline. The new mobility services of recent years help offer the consumer exceptional convenience with greater    
 flexibility and affordability. We believe the fundamental insight behind these newer platforms is that today’s consumers value               
 access over ownership and prefer to save time while also enjoying more personalized experiences.                                             |

| ● | Solutions combining micro-entrepreneurship                                                                                                      
 and efficient use of assets at scale are gaining momentum. In recent years, we believe global technology platforms have consistently            
 offered individuals more opportunities to participate in their “scale-up” journeys.
