GoCar Malaysia has formed an alliance with EV Connection, a one-stop electric vehicle (EV) charging service provider, to expand accessibility to EV charging stations in the country.

This collaboration will enable the integration of GoCar’s mobile application with EV Connection’s JomCharge mobile platform. 

Specifically, to increase connectivity to more EV charging stations and fast DC chargers for GoCar users and the general public.

GoCar Malaysia’s chief executive officer, Wong Hoe Mun, remarked, “This strategic partnership with EV Connection is in line with GoCar’s commitment to bring the EV experience into mainstream Malaysia through GoEV. Through this integration, we believe that our users can better plan their trips and have real-time updates on EV charging locations on the fly. This will ultimately reduce range anxiety and increase comfort and convenience for GoCar and other EV users.”

The first phase of integration is expected to finish by Q3 2022. Ensuing that, all the users will be able to view charger locations, availability and types from EV Connection’s grid via the GoCar app.

Moving forward, plans to scale up include 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’s technical director, Dr. Che Hang Seng, concluded, “This collaboration is in line with Jomcharge’s mission to support the electric mobility transition in the region. Together with GoCar, we hope to relieve the anxiety and reduce EV-adoption barriers for the mass market.”
