Drive lah

Drive lah, a start-up based in Singapore, was founded in January 2019 as a peer-to-peer car sharing platform. The company offers a wide range of cars available for rent at affordable prices, and all trips booked through Drive lah are insured by Tokio Marine, our insurance partner. The main concept behind Drive lah is to address the high cost of car ownership in Singapore, where most cars are parked and only used 5% of the time. By allowing car owners to rent out their vehicles when they are not in use, Drive lah helps reduce the cost of ownership. Renters can take advantage of these available cars at a good value. In line with the growing trend of on-demand services in various fields such as taxi, food, and beauty, Drive lah aims to lead the way in providing convenient and simplified car access for traveling long distances.
