The company is receiving customer enquiries at all its touch points across the country, he added.

"Further, the notable traction in online booking is coming from semi-urban areas due to strong telecom infrastructure. This showcases emergence of new era of connected-mobility solutions and acceptance of technology in day-to-day life," Jain said.

The company is scheduled to launch the model on May 21.
