Uber, the leading ridesharing app today launched an on demand rentals service - 'Uber Rentals' in Sylhet. 

Using Uber Rentals, riders can now book a car and its driver for several hours at a stretch and make multiple stops on a journey, just as they would with their own car and travel to anywhere within Sylhet district, reads a press release. 

The service will be available both for Sedan and XL cars, at an affordable price point of Tk600 for a 2 hour/20 km package. 

Riders will have the option to choose from multiple hourly packages that can be booked up to a maximum of 12 hours/160 km.
