(GSM) proudly announced that it has reached the 6 millionth ride after only 5 months of its market launch. This is a record growth rate, firmly demonstrating the development potential as well as the solid foothold of Green SM in the field of passenger transport in Vietnam.

The special customer who took the 6 millionth ride is Mr. Nguyen Thai Duong in Ho Chi Minh City. The other two lucky customers who have orders of 5,999,999th and 6,000,001st are Mr. Nguyen Khanh Hoa in Ha Noi, and Mr. Hoang Long in Binh Duong. Green SM's representatives congratulated the three special guests and presented them each with a gift of appreciation. They are awarded with a green mobility package, of which the 6 millionth customer received an award worth 6 million VND, and the remaining customers received a 3 million VND award each.

Sharing her joy, the 6 millionth customer, Mr. Nguyen Thai Duong said: "I am a frequent customer of Green SM because it provides not only a nice and clean vehicle but also professional and well-trained drivers. It is also a zero-emission and zero-noise ride-hailing company, a pioneer in green transportation. I hope Green SM will grow further in Vietnam and across the borders so that everyone can join hands to protect our environment."

Green SM officially launched its pure-electric ride-hailing service on 14 April 2023 and has rolled out its electric taxi service in 17 provinces and cities across the country, reaching 6 million rides.
