Vietnamese all-electric taxi operator Green SM has made its European debut in Copenhagen, rolling out a company-owned fleet of VinFast EVs.
Backed by Vietnamese conglomerate Vingroup, Green SM already operates in Vietnam, Laos, Indonesia, the Philippines, and India. Copenhagen is its first European city.
Green SM’s Danish fleet consists of VinFast VF 6 and VF 8 electric SUVs. And unlike ride-hailing services such as Uber, which connect passengers with independent drivers, Green SM owns and manages its cars and directly oversees its drivers.
The company says that the model gives it more control over everything from vehicle maintenance to the customer experience. Drivers undergo training in road safety, customer service, operating procedures, and EV use before picking up passengers.
