SEPANG, June 25 — Grab Malaysia has officially launched its first fleet of electric vehicles (EVs) dedicated to airport transport services at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), marking a significant milestone in its efforts to promote sustainable mobility.
The initiative aligns with Malaysia’s national agenda to lower carbon emissions and raise public awareness on the adoption of greener transport options. Country operations and mobility director Rashid Shukor said KLIA was chosen as the launch site due to its strategic importance and visibility as a major transportation hub.
To further enhance the passenger experience, Grab has also introduced a dedicated EV lounge at the terminal, offering a comfortable waiting area for travellers using the service. The new fleet features the fully electric BYD M6 seven-seater MPV, known for its smooth, quiet ride and ample luggage space.
The rollout follows a Memorandum of Understanding signed in March with industry partners BYD Sime Motors, Yinson Green Technologies, and Power-Up Tech, reinforcing Grab’s commitment to driving forward low-emission mobility solutions in Malaysia.
