Grab Indonesia has expanded its electric vehicle (EV) fleet within its service ecosystem to 28,000 units as of May 2026, as part of efforts to promote energy efficiency and support the transition towards cleaner energy in Indonesia. Grab Indonesia CEO Neneng Goenadi stated that the initiative was introduced to encourage the public to make wiser energy choices in their daily activities, amidst global dynamics that are putting pressure on the energy sector, including fuel prices and public mobility costs. “We certainly want to encourage the public to make wiser energy choices through their daily activities. This initiative also comes amid global dynamics that are putting pressure on the energy sector, including fuel prices and public mobility costs. Therefore, energy efficiency is increasingly important for us to promote together,” Neneng said during a press conference in Jakarta on Monday. As one of the largest EV operators in Indonesia, Grab recorded that its electric vehicle fleet had reached 28,000 units as of May 2026, twice the number at the end of 2025. The company also aims to triple the 2025 figure by the end of this year. “Through our ‘Bijak BBM’ spirit, Grab is offering more energy-efficient service options, including GrabCar Electric, GrabBike Electric, GrabExpress Electric, and GrabFood which can also use electric vehicles. All our services are available with electric options, and the public can choose whichever they prefer,” Neneng added. Prior to reaching 28,000 units, Grab had operated more than 14,000 active electric vehicles since 2019, comprising over 11,000 two-wheelers and more than 3,000 four-wheelers, supported by over 1,500 battery swap stations across various regions in Indonesia. The latest fleet expansion includes various models such as the BYD M6, BYD Atto 1, Maxus Mifa 9, and electric motorcycles including the ALVA N3 and Electrum H5.
