Bolt launches a luxury ride-hailing service in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez

This summer, Bolt, the European mobility platform, launched its "Luxury" category across the entire Gulf of Saint-Tropez area. Offering a high-end transport experience, this category is designed to meet the expectations of the most demanding users looking for comfort and refinement. "The Côte d'Azur is one of the most active areas during the summer season. In fact, demand more than tripled between May and June and continues to grow by nearly 50% each week," notes Mathilde Giron, operations director at Bolt France. She adds: "This is the case for drivers, many of whom come from all over France for the summer season. The launch of this "Luxury" category allows us to expand our service offering by providing an option that meets the needs of an upscale clientele who are very present in the region and have high expectations in terms of comfort, luxury, and service. This strategic initiative aims to offer an unparalleled transport experience and to strengthen our presence in the region."

NEW EXPERIENCE

This new category is designed to offer an uncompromising transport experience. Only the highest-rated drivers, with a minimum score of 4.8/5, are selected, in order to guarantee a superior quality of service. The vehicles available in this category include prestige models (Mercedes EQS, Classe S, Classe V, Audi A8, BMW Série 7, etc.). "These vehicles, which are less than five years old, offer a combination of comfort and style, thus ensuring a luxurious and pleasant journey on every trip. The "Luxury" category covers the entire Gulf of Saint-Tropez area. Users can enjoy this premium transport service along the coast, from Saint-Raphaël to Ramatuelle. This category allows users to travel easily between destinations such as Sainte-Maxime, Grimaud, Port Grimaud, and Ramatuelle. In addition, for those who prefer to plan ahead, it is possible to book a trip up to 90 days in advance thanks to the advance booking option," continues the operations director.

COMFORT AND SAFETY

In terms of service quality, Bolt's number one priority is the safety of users and drivers. This is why the company has developed several features that have improved safety during trips. These features include an SOS button. This essential safety feature allows passengers and drivers to quickly and discreetly alert emergency services, thereby ensuring immediate assistance. There is also trip safety monitoring. This is an innovative system that detects anomalies such as prolonged stops or deviations from the planned route. It performs real-time checks with passengers and drivers to confirm their safety and provide options to contact emergency services if necessary.
