GoCar Malaysia and EV Connection have recently signed a partnership to install more EV charging stations in the country. The announcement was made at the Electric Vehicle Expo (EVx) 2022 in Setia City Convention Centre.
The collaboration lets GoCar’s mobile app users charge at EV charging stations and fast DC chargers using EV Connection’s JomCharge mobile platform.
The first phase is expected to be completed by the third quarter this year (September to December).
Once launched, GoCar users and the general public will be able to view charger locations, charger availability and charger types within EV Connection’s network via the GoCar app.
Both companies also have plans to introduce new features in the future such as the capability to pre-book an EV charger, schedule a recharge, make payments, and track the vehicle charging progress through the GoCar app.
EV Connection currently already has a network of DC charger networks along the North-South Expressway. It now aims to have 100 charging stations by the end of 2022.
These chargers are universal and work with all types of EV makes and models.
Going beyond renting our cars, GoCar is now focused on 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.
