The app, which was adopted from South Korea, will bring forth a new era of keyless driving (well basically your phone is the key) in Malaysia.<\/p>\n<p>With SOCAR, it gives users the flexibility and the convenience of driving a car without being tied down to the commitment of actually owning one. Just by using the app, it allows users to book their car of choice with just a few taps on their device. Users can book a car for anything between 30 minutes to up to a week.<\/p>\n<p>Registered members can book cars be it from the heavy traffic areas like KLCC or popular hangout spots like Bangsar or Damansara Heights. The company currently has 100 pick-up spots across the city with a total of 240 cars.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/pokde.net\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SOCAR.jpg?ssl=1\" rel=\"prettyPhoto[29619]\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-29631 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/pokde.net\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SOCAR.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/pokde.net\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SOCAR.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/pokde.net\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SOCAR.jpg?resize=569%2C427&amp;ssl=1 569w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/pokde.net\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SOCAR.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/pokde.net\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SOCAR.jpg?resize=180%2C135&amp;ssl=1 180w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/pokde.net\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SOCAR.jpg?resize=360%2C270&amp;ssl=1 360w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/pokde.net\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SOCAR.jpg?resize=790%2C593&amp;ssl=1 790w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/pokde.net\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SOCAR.jpg?resize=1095%2C821&amp;ssl=1 1095w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/pokde.net\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SOCAR.jpg?w=1200&amp;ssl=1 1200w\" alt=\"\" width=\"776\" height=\"582\" data-attachment-id=\"29631\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/pokde.net\/news\/socar-officially-available-malaysia-grab-car-anywhere-anytime\/attachment\/socar\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/pokde.net\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SOCAR.jpg?fit=1200%2C900&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1200,900\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"SOCAR\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/pokde.net\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SOCAR.jpg?fit=569%2C427&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/pokde.net\/assets\/uploads\/2018\/01\/SOCAR.jpg?fit=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Some might ask where do they park if they are done using the car. To answer that, SOCAR has prepared designated parking spaces to help with that.<\/p>\n<p>For safety assurance, every SOCAR reservation includes full and personal accident insurance for the time reserved to manage member\u2019s safety expectations. If you have any trouble while on the road, you can just tap on their \u2018Live Hotline\u2019 function and that will prompt their SOCAR\u2019s 24-7 Customer Support hotline number for emergencies.<\/p>\n<p>Payments options will be made available to users upon registration. They are extended to both debit and credit card holders. Additionally, members can enjoy a Door-to-Door service, where your reserved SOCAR can be delivered straight to your desired pick-up and return location. It works similarly like a valet service, except you can choose where to pickup and return the vehicle. This service will cost RM5 and is currently available at Bangsar and Damansara Heights only.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the available vehicles and rates;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Perodua Axia \u2013 Weekday\u00a0RM8.00\u00a0\/ Weekend\u00a0RM11.00<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Honda City \u2013 Weekday\u00a0RM9.90\u00a0\/ Weekend\u00a0RM15.90<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Honda HR-V \u2013 Weekday\u00a0RM18.90\u00a0\/ Weekend\u00a0\u00a0RM25.00<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Mini Cooper \u2013 Weekday\u00a0RM25.00\u00a0\/ Weekend\u00a0RM30.00<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>*All of the prices are per hour<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With the launch, SOCAR is offering new members 50% off on their first two bookings.
