A new route for VinFast vehicles
Green SM announced a six-seat electric taxi service and a driver rental programme in Indonesia on 19 September 2026. The launch combines passenger trips, access to VinFast vehicles and charging support within a single commercial offer.
Green Limo uses Limo Green vehicles. An initial batch of 500 vehicles is scheduled for handover at the Kemayoran depot in Jakarta between 19 and 29 September. The schedule does not establish how many have already been delivered.
The corporate connection
Green SM is the mobility brand of GSM, a business connected to VinFast through the commercial interests of entrepreneur Pham Nhat Vuong. In February 2026, GSM disclosed that Vuong held 49.04% of its shares. He also led VinFast before a September 2026 leadership transition.
That relationship matters when assessing the expansion. Fleet deployment through an affiliated operator is a different measure from purchases by unrelated retail customers. The announcement shows a further route to put VinFast vehicles into service; it does not establish broader consumer demand or an increase in market share.
The rental offer and what comes next
The announced rental programme starts at IDR 2 million upfront and IDR 254,000 per day, covers several VinFast models and includes charging at V-Green stations without a charging fee. Those are advertised starting terms, not a calculation of driver take-home earnings.
For drivers and fleet businesses, the next checks are the applicable model and contract, maintenance and insurance responsibilities, charging access and actual trip demand. For observers of VinFast’s regional expansion, completed handovers and sustained vehicle use would be more informative than the launch announcement alone.
