LOOK | 500 VinFast Green GSM E-Taxis Arrive at Davao Port
About 500 electric taxis from Green GSM, powered by Vietnam’s VinFast, have arrived at Davao Port. The large shipment marks another milestone in Davao City’s continuing drive toward modern and sustainable transportation. It also reflects the growing confidence of investors and transport innovators in the city’s readiness to adopt clean energy solutions.
While the official launch details have yet to be announced, the e-taxis are expected to feature long-range batteries, fast charging, and quiet, zero-emission performance. VinFast’s compact electric models, similar to the VF 5 and VF 6 series, can travel up to 380 kilometers per charge. These vehicles are designed to deliver efficiency, comfort, and reliability for both drivers and passengers.
This development follows the launch of Maligaya E-Taxis in September, which introduced Davaoeños to the city’s first electric taxi fleet. Although only a few units have been deployed so far, the project has drawn strong public interest and support. It has also laid the groundwork for a broader shift toward cleaner and more innovative transport systems in the city.
With the arrival of the Green GSM fleet, Davao continues to lead Mindanao in adopting sustainable and future-ready mobility. The growing presence of electric taxis could enhance passenger experience and help reduce traffic-related emissions. It also aligns with Davao City’s long-term goal of building a modern, inclusive, and eco-friendly public transport network that reflects its vision as the Crown Jewel of Mindanao.
