GoCar Malaysia and Yinson GreenTech’s drivEV are taking their collaboration to new heights with the introduction of electric vehicle (EV) car sharing in Johor Bahru. As part of their shared commitment to green mobility, the new Aion Y Plus and Ora Good Cat are now available for booking at key locations in Johor Bahru.
The initiative aims to provide Johor Bahru residents and Singaporean visitors with zero-carbon mobility options, supporting the growing demand for sustainable travel solutions in southern Malaysia.
To further enhance seamless travel, GoCar has partnered with Handal Indah Sdn Bhd (HISB), a subsidiary of HI Mobility Berhad, to offer commuters convenient connections on the Electric Causeway Link buses. Travellers arriving from Singapore can conveniently continue their journey within Johor Bahru using EVs that are available at Toppen Shopping Centre and other strategic locations near major bus drop-off points.
“The success of our EV-sharing fleet in Klang Valley has proven that zero-emission mobility is not just a vision but a practical and scalable solution for modern urban transport. By expanding this initiative to Johor Bahru, in collaboration with drivEV, we are taking another significant step toward reducing carbon footprints and promoting sustainable travel. This launch not only supports Johor Bahru residents but also offers Singaporean visitors an eco-friendly way to explore the city, reinforcing our commitment to making zero-emissions mobility accessible to everyone, everywhere,” said Wong Hoe Mun, Chief Executive Officer of GoCar Malaysia.

With this, we strive to enable commuters to embrace socially responsible alternatives while benefitting from convenient and sustainable transportation options,” said Kelvin Soon, Managing Director of drivEV.
