Green GSM, The First All EV Taxi Service In The Philippines, Has Just Launched


The first all-electric taxi service in the Philippines, Green GSM has launched. It marks the fourth market Green GSM operates in following Vietnam, Laos, and Indonesia.

Founded in Vietnam in March 2023, GSM has emerged as a pioneer in sustainable transportation across Southeast Asia. Its expansion into the Philippines not only underscores the international capabilities of a Vietnamese enterprise, but also helps redefine transportation norms across the region with a Greener, Smarter, More Civilized standard.

Green GSM will begin operations in 10 of the 16 cities and districts that make up Metro Manila. The service will operate an exclusive fleet of VinFast Nerio Green electric vehicles, offering smooth, quiet rides and zero emissions.

The fleet’s signature cyan color, blending green (symbolizing sustainability) and blue (representing innovation), embodies Green GSM’s vision of a modern lifestyle that respects and protects the planet.

Not only does Green GSM contribute to reducing carbon emissions, air pollution, and noise, commuters also enjoy a premium, future-ready transport solution.

Operating to international standards, Green GSM delivers a five-star experience powered by professionally trained drivers, rigorously educated in safe driving, etiquette, and customer care. Every vehicle is equipped with the Secure to Safe (S2S) monitoring system, anchored by three core pillars:
  • Secure – real-time monitoring to proactively manage risks
  • Safe – ensuring peace of mind for every passenger, with special focus on women, children, and the elderly
  • Smart – leveraging AI to enhance operational efficiency, safety, and transparency
Fares are transparently calculated through in-car meters and clearly displayed on the Green GSM app. Pricing is highly competitive and offers greater value compared to conventional ride-hailing services, ensuring comfort, convenience, and affordability for every ride.

Mr. Nguyá»…n Văn Thanh, Global CEO of GSM, shared, “The Philippines marks a strategic chapter in our Go Green Global journey. But more than expanding to a new market, our true goal is to ignite a real transformation – shifting from traditional mobility to an electric future that is cleaner, smarter, and more socially responsible.”

Commuters can start riding with Green GSM via the Green GSM mobile app, now available on App Store and Google Play; by calling the hotline +63 2 7777 8080; hailing a Green GSM taxi on the street; or catching a ride at designated public pick-up points throughout Metro Manila.

To celebrate its launch, Green GSM is offering an exclusive promotion: 500 Green Points (worth P 500) for users who register and take their first ride. Green Points can be applied as discounts on the first seven trips. This offer is valid from June 10 to August 31, 2025, encouraging Metro Manila residents to embrace a smarter, greener, more modern way to travel.
