GSM Launches Green SM Platform: Accelerating Electric Ride-Hailing Expansion in Indonesia and Philippines

Green and Smart Mobility (GSM), the innovative ride-hailing arm of Vietnam's Vingroup conglomerate, has launched its Green SM Platform in Indonesia and the Philippines.

This expansion follows over two years of successful international operations, positioning GSM as a key player in Southeast Asia's mobility sector.

Key Features of the Green SM Platform

Starting April 13, owners and renters of VinFast electric vehicles can register as service partners on the platform.

The platform integrates into GSM's broader electric mobility ecosystem, enhancing driver and vehicle availability with standardized training for consistent service quality.

In Indonesia, partners can utilize models like the VF 5, VF e34, VF 6, and Limo Green, supported by purchase and rental programs.

The Philippines rollout initially features VF 5 and Limo Green models, complete with assistance for registration, insurance, and operations.

Drivers benefit from free charging policies through March 31, 2029, significantly lowering operational costs and promoting EV adoption.

Historically, GSM has leveraged Vingroup's ecosystem, including VinFast's EV manufacturing prowess, to pioneer green transportation solutions.

The launch promises substantial impact by bolstering Southeast Asia's electric mobility infrastructure and reducing carbon emissions through widespread EV usage.

Looking ahead, GSM aims to deepen its regional footprint, fostering sustainable urban mobility and partnerships across emerging markets.

This initiative underscores a commitment to eco-friendly innovation amid growing demand for electric ride-hailing services.
