ComfortDelGro’s Zig invests over $10m in EVs, hybrids for hire fleet

Vantage Automotive will supply BYD M6 and SEAL 6 models amidst strong hirer demand.

Zig by ComfortDelGro is investing over $10m in its private hire vehicle fleet with new electric and hybrid vehicles supplied by Vantage Automotive.

The fleet will include BYD models such as the fully electric BYD M6 and the BYD SEAL 6 DM-i hybrid.

The group said the vehicles will be progressively added to its private hire fleet and made available to hirers in the coming months.

Hirers will also receive preferential charging rates through CDG Energy, as well as maintenance support from ComfortDelGro Engineering’s automotive workshop network.

The investment comes amidst stronger demand for private hire vehicles (PHV), said Michael Huang, head of Singapore Point-to-Point Mobility Business.

“Investing in our PHV fleet gives hirers more options and strengthens our ability to support mobility demand across Singapore,” Huang added.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
