Early riders of Green GSM reflect on their experiences
Green GSM, the Philippines’ first all-electric taxi service, is rapidly gaining a loyal following to the commuters of Metro Manila.
Just two months after its launch, the company is earning praise for a seamless passenger experience that combines a spotless, soundless ride with dependable, on-time service. The success demonstrates that a blend of sustainability and quality service can set a new industry benchmark.
Passengers consistently highlight the quiet and clean nature of the electric vehicles. Unlike traditional gasoline-powered taxis, the company’s cars glide down the road without engine noise, vibration, or the familiar smell of fuel emissions. One rider, Gabriel Joshua Ancheta, praised the service’s reliability, noting, “The rides show up when they should, the drivers are courteous, and I always feel safe.”

Others, like Yaj Myel Manzo, appreciate the comfort, stating, “The car is very clean and comfortable even in hot weather—no bad smells.”
Beyond the ride itself, Green GSM’s app has also earned high marks for its simplicity and user-friendly interface. This focus on punctuality and ease of use is helping the company stand out in a competitive ride-hailing market, encouraging commuters to choose the service even when other options are available.
The advantages are more than just about convenience; riders also express a sense of satisfaction from contributing to a cleaner environment, with one passenger saying, “I feel like I’m making a small impact on the environment in a good way.”
By prioritizing both an exceptional passenger experience and a commitment to zero emissions, Green GSM is positioning itself as a leader in the nation’s growing ride-hailing market, proving that the future of transportation can be both sustainable and a superior choice for daily commuters.
