STRIDES Premier, a leading provider of point-to-point transport services, today unveiled its new fleet of DENZA D9 electric limousines at its Paya Lebar Quarter office. With this milestone, STRIDES Premier becomes the first limousine operator in Singapore to set its limousine fleet on a path to electrification, marking a decisive step forward in green mobility.
The introduction of the DENZA D9 further elevates STRIDES Premier’s premium limousine offerings, delivering travel experiences anchored on convenience, style, and sustainability. Seamlessly blending cutting-edge EV technology with refined comfort and style, the DENZA D9 vehicles feature luxury leather seats, in-built massage functions, and generous legroom across all rows – delivering a first-class experience for every journey.
In support of Singapore’s green mobility goals, STRIDES Premier has committed to acquiring 20 DENZA D9 vehicles by 2025 as part of its fleet renewal plans for its limousine fleet. This complements STRIDES Premier’s existing taxi and private hire car fleets, including 300 electric vehicles currently in operation.
“This launch underscores STRIDES Premier’s vision to be a forward-looking, sustainability-driven leader in the limousine space, delivering exceptional service to our clients. This collaboration enables us to drive the transition to EVs while delivering long-term economic benefits to our driver-partners, including potential fuel cost savings,” said Ang Wei Neng, CEO, STRIDES Premier.
In addition, STRIDES Premier has been officially appointed as the authorised repairer for DENZA vehicles used in its new fleet in Singapore, through its automotive arm, STRIDES Premier Automotive Services Pte Ltd (“SPAUTO”). This strategic collaboration ensures premium aftersales service and technical support for its new fleet, including guaranteed access to spare parts and direct technical expertise from BYD.
The long-term partnership established with Vantage Automotive – the authorised dealer and service provider for DENZA – will also enable co-development of service programmes, technical training, and logistics support, strengthening SPAUTO’s position in the electric vehicle aftersales ecosystem.
James Ng, Managing Director, BYD Singapore, said, “We are delighted to support STRIDES Premier’s transition to an electric limousine fleet. The DENZA D9 combines premium comfort with advanced EV technology, enabling quieter, smoother rides and a lower carbon footprint.”
