Xpress Super App Leads Electric Moto-Taxi Shift with Backing from Aboitiz Power Group and Longtime Partner Cebuana Lhuillier

 

 Manila, Philippines — Xpress Super App is asserting a leadership role in the country’s shift toward cleaner mobility by operationalizing a scalable electric moto-taxi model using VOLTAI electric motorcycles under the Aboitiz Power Group, integrated directly into its high-frequency ride-hailing ecosystem.

While electric mobility has gained global momentum, large-scale adoption in emerging markets has often been constrained by fragmented execution. Xpress’ strategy addresses this gap by focusing on deployment at volume, targeting two-wheel transport—one of the most widely used and economically critical mobility segments in the Philippines.

“The challenge today is no longer whether electric vehicles work, but how quickly they can be deployed where they matter most,” Xpress shared. “Two-wheel ride-hailing offers the fastest path to scale, efficiency, and everyday relevance.”

Platform-led execution over pilot programs

As an active mobility platform, Xpress anchors its electric rollout on operational fundamentals rather than isolated trials. The platform brings together:

Consistent, high-frequency ride demand suited for electric two-wheel use

Integrated operations aligned with real passenger and driver behavior

Repeatable deployment discipline that allows expansion across cities

VOLTAI electric motorcycles are engineered for Philippine road conditions and continuous daily use, enabling Xpress to introduce EVs without compromising service reliability or rider comfort.

Institutional confidence strengthens long-term direction

The initiative is reinforced by the continued backing of Cebuana Lhuillier, a longtime partner of Xpress that has supported the platform’s growth and sustainability direction over time. This alignment reflects shared confidence in Xpress’ ability to scale cleaner mobility solutions responsibly and commercially.

Rather than positioning sustainability as a short-term initiative, Xpress and its institutional partners are advancing electric mobility as a long-horizon strategy—one that improves everyday transport while contributing to broader environmental goals.

A scalable blueprint for Philippine mobility

By embedding electric two-wheel vehicles directly into an operating ride-hailing platform, Xpress is positioning electric moto-taxis as a commercially viable and repeatable model, particularly suited for dense urban centers and tourism-driven markets.

The collaboration signals a broader shift in Philippine mobility: clean transport adoption is now being driven by platform execution, institutional backing, and real-world economics, with Xpress at the center of that transition.
