G'day mates! 🇦🇺 Planning a trip to Bali? Here's some ripper news for your next holiday. Since February 2026, the streets of Bali have gone green – literally.
Green SM, Indonesia's first 100% electric taxi service (previously known as Xanh SM), has officially launched in Bali. And trust us, this is a game-changer for anyone looking to get around the island in style, comfort, and without burning a hole in your pocket.
🚖 What is Green SM?
Green SM is the Indonesian arm of GSM (Green and Smart Mobility), a Vietnamese company founded by billionaire Pham Nhat Vuong. After successful launches in Jakarta, Surabaya, and Makassar, they've finally hit the streets of Bali – just in time for your 2026 holiday.
The fleet? All VinFast electric vehicles – mostly the VF e34 and VF 5 models. Silent, smooth, and zero emissions. Perfect for zipping around Seminyak, Ubud, or down to Uluwatu.
✨ Why Aussies Will Love It
