National, August 5th, 2026: Cleartrip, a Flipkart company, today launched Bus 2.0, a significantly expanded road travel experience that connects travellers to more than 6.5 lakh routes across 6,000+ cities, including destinations that lie beyond the reach of air and rail networks. With deeper network penetration, an intuitive booking journey and access to one of the country’s largest road travel inventories, Bus 2.0 enables travellers to seamlessly book buses alongside flights, trains and hotels, all on a single platform.
The category has emerged as an important touchpoint for Gen Z travellers. Today, more than 55% of bus bookings on Cleartrip come from Gen Z travellers. Students, solo travellers and first-job professionals increasingly choose buses for affordable weekend getaways, homebound trips and spontaneous travel. It offers a reliable alternative during times of high demand for train travel, making road travel more accessible than ever.
Cleartrip brings together leading private operators alongside state transport corporations, offering travellers choice across intercity and regional routes. With access to nearly 95% of the country’s private bus inventory and a growing network of government-operated services, Bus 2.0 gives travellers the depth of choice typically available only at physical bus terminals, now accessible from a phone.
