Kenyans are set to enjoy a new, one-of-a-kind driving experience by Bolt after the ride-hailing platform launched "Bolt Comfort", a new ride category designed to meet growing demand for high-quality transport services among Nairobi's expanding middle class and professional commuters. In the new package, passengers are set to experience a new service tier offering spacious, newer-model vehicles, 2016 and above, mandatory air-conditioning, and access to top-rated drivers (4.8+ rating). Unlike Standard rides, where amenities like air conditioning are not guaranteed, Comfort mandates it, alongside regular third-party vehicle inspections every six months via AutoExpress, ensuring a consistently high-quality experience.
Drivers enrolled in the Comfort category benefit from improved earning potential through higher fare rates, and only those with a strong performance record (rating of 4.8+) qualify, raising the overall service standard for both riders and drivers.
