Integrated Fleet Model for Quality Control

By taking full control of its electric vehicle fleet, driver hiring and training, and customer service protocols, Green SM differentiates itself from aggregator platforms like Uber and Ola. This direct management approach allows for consistent quality and a better customer experience.
VinFast's Strategic Entry Point
For Vietnamese automaker VinFast, this venture is a key part of its international expansion.

This compensation aims to attract and keep drivers by ensuring financial stability and rewarding performance. The specific VinFast models for the fleet are not yet confirmed but will be chosen based on comfort, efficiency, safety, and operating costs.
Long-Term Vision for India
Green SM sees India as a significant market for the future. The company's initial focus is on smooth operations, maintaining high service quality, and developing reliable charging infrastructure. It plans to approach expansion and investment details cautiously, emphasizing a strategy for sustainable growth in India's electric mobility sector.
