Vietnamese ride-hailing operator Green SM has entered the Indian market with the launch of its all-electric taxi service in Delhi-NCR.

With its arrival, Green SM will take on established ride-hailing players such as Uber and Ola in the country. The service will be operated using the VinFast Limo Green, a seven-seat electric MPV developed specifically for commercial passenger transportation.
