Hanoi (VNA) 💮– Green SM, the pioneering all-electric taxi service of Vietnam’s Green and Smart Mobility (GSM), has officially launched in Bekasi city, Indonesia.

From September 16, residents and visitors can enjoy a safer, cleaner, and higher-quality travel option aboard the company’s signature cyan taxis, with special promotions available for new users. The debut in Bekasi features a fleet of VinFast electric taxis, which can be easily booked through the Green SM app. Green SM’s expansion to Bekasi follows its successful launch in Jakarta, where it quickly gained strong public support and became a symbol of green urban mobility. By entering Bekasi, the company strengthens the city’s transportation network through direct connections with TransJakarta, LRT Jabodebek, and Commuter Line stations, making commuting more convenient with seamless first- and last-mile options. This development is especially significant for Bekasi, known as Indonesia’s “city of workers” and a major industrial hub, where hundreds of thousands commute daily to Jakarta for work and study. Green SM’s reliable electric taxi network is expected to reduce dependence on motorbikes and private cars, ease congestion, cut emissions, and improve air quality, while offering safe and affordable transport options for families and workers. The expansion also marks a major milestone in Green SM’s Jabodetabek growth plan. By promoting clean-energy transportation in one of Indonesia’s busiest metropolitan areas, the company not only supports the nation’s carbon reduction goals but also contributes to Bekasi’s smart city vision. More than just launching a service, the initiative aims to build a long-term ecosystem where technology, mobility, and community advance together toward sustainable growth. Deny Tjia, Managing Director of Green SM Indonesia, said the expansion into Bekasi reflects the company’s deep commitment to the city and its people. Looking ahead, Green SM plans to expand further across Indonesia, with Surabaya and Makassar set to join the network soon, he added. This eastward expansion beyond Java highlights the company’s ability to scale across diverse urban environments, reinforcing its role as a pioneer in promoting green transportation nationwide./.
