GoCar Malaysia will now extend its app users’ access to EV charging stations in the country with its EV Connection collaboration.
The collaboration will enable the integration of GoCar’s mobile app with EV Connection’s JomCharge mobile platform giving users increased access to more EV charging stations and fast DC chargers for its users and the general public.
Following the first phase of integration, which is expected to be completed by Quarter 3 2022, users will be able to view charger locations, charger availability and charger types within EV Connection’s network via the GoCar app.
Future plans to scale up include enhancement of services such as the capability to pre-book an EV charger, schedule a recharge, make payments and track the vehicle charging progress through the app.
EV Connection currently has one of the largest DC charger networks in the country, located along the North-South Expressway. The company is targeting an expansion to 100 charging stations by the end of 2022. These DC chargers are universal chargers and can accommodate all types of EV makes and models.
Having diversified from a car sharing platform to offering a range of mobility solutions, GoCar has been focused on expanding access to EV solutions through EV car sharing, EV subscription, and EV charging. The company recently added the Hyundai Kona to its GoEV line-up and aims to increase its fleet to more than 100 EVs by the end of 2022.
