The headline VND 14,000-15,000 per km comes from several single-source listings. One other listing shows an electric range of VND 15,500-20,000 per km, which is the outlier, and one petrol listing shows VND 16,000-20,000. Petrol per-km fares in the listings are often similar, so the choice may depend on comfort, availability and booking method. For a general view of fares, read taxi fare per km.

How to book and what to check

  1. Hail one on the street, as electric cars can be flagged down like traditional taxis.
  2. Or book through the operator’s app, through a ride-hailing app service, or by phone.
  3. Or message us on WhatsApp. We arrange it with local partners and confirm the exact price in the chat before you pay.

Confirm the meter or fixed price, the pickup point, seat count and luggage space, child seat availability, night surcharge, waiting time and the payment method with cash change. For short hops, see short taxi rides between areas. To weigh apps against taxis, read ride-hailing vs taxi.

Safety and conditions

Check that the car and driver match your booking, the meter is on, and the doors lock properly. Electric cars are quiet, so watch for traffic when you step out, and tell children to wait for the driver before opening a door. Keep the booking details in your chat so you can show them if the driver asks, and check that the fare shown matches what you agreed before you pay. The operator also offers tour packages with driving distances from 35 km to 140 km; agree the route and the price before you start.

Message us on WhatsApp for the exact price on your date.

One electric operator takes bookings through its mobile app, through a ride-hailing app service and by phone, and its cars can also be hailed on the street like traditional taxis. Or message us on WhatsApp and we arrange it with local partners and confirm the exact price in the chat before you pay.
Where can I find electric taxis?
The operator began its taxi service in Phu Quoc city on 2 July 2023 with an initial fleet of 100 electric cars. The current fleet may differ. Availability is best in town and weaker in remote areas late at night, so pre-book if you stay outside the centre.
What are electric taxis like inside?
The operator describes its cars as quiet, clean and air conditioned. Range and luggage space are not stated in the listings, so ask for the seat count and boot size if you carry suitcases. For a long trip across the island, ask the operator to confirm the car can complete it.
Can tourists pay by cash?
The listings do not say, so ask the driver or the operator before you ride, and carry small notes for change. If you book through an app, check which payment methods it accepts for visitors. In a WhatsApp booking, we confirm the payment method in the chat before you pay.
