Motorist - The Leading AutoConcierge Platform in Singapore

 


Motorist, the Leading AutoConcierge Platform in Singapore, aims to make vehicle ownership simple and hassle-free through a comprehensive suite of vehicle management tools and on-demand auto services. The platform connects motorists to the right motor service provider and has grown into the largest driver community in Singapore, transacting millions of dollars in vehicles every month.

The company, a joint venture with the Traffic Police, aims to help drivers and motorcyclists navigate the roads safely and securely. As of now, it assists 10% of Singapore's vehicle population, with the aim of reaching 40% by 2023. The app also helps drivers and motorcyclists identify hazard zones, and prevent accidents from occurring.

The company claims to have served over 500,000 motorists and handled over US $600 million in car transactions. It's early days, but the team hopes to personalize the experience as more users use it. They recently launched a feature that enables car owners to post the condition of their vehicles and view daily generated reports on their estimated valuation and depreciation. This service is available for free to all motorists and is backed by seven years' worth of valuation data.

Founded by Damian Sia, Motorist is a digital automotive platform that helps drivers and auto service providers manage their vehicles. The company has been growing rapidly in Singapore, having served nearly half a million drivers and facilitating more than S$600 million worth of vehicle transactions. In the last 12 months, Motorist has increased its Gross Merchandisable Value (GMV) from S$176 million to over S$650 million.

In Singapore, owning a car is a status symbol. Most of the population relies on their cars for daily tasks. But the rational Singapore motorist would like to drive as much as possible. However, the Government has attempted to promote less driving through the Park-and-Ride Scheme. The scheme is intended to ease congestion by reducing vehicle ownership.

Ng, an interior designer, pleaded guilty to voluntarily causing hurt and has been sentenced to a week's jail term if he cannot pay the fine. He also hit a cyclist with a young child, causing severe injury to both. The incident has been caught on video.

The JSPT system records vehicle details in Malaysia and Singapore and reduces unpaid traffic summons. With the use of iCOPS number plate identification system, JSPT can trace traffic offenders, cloned vehicles and stolen vehicles. In-Car Radar will detect speeding summonses can be issued on the spot. The JSPT system is a welcome addition to Malaysia-Singapore Causeway enforcement.

The study also explores how the PRS system came about, from its early incarnation in 1975 to its relaunch in 1990. The study also includes a survey of users of the PRS. The findings indicate that only 4% of users find it satisfactory, while ninety percent find it problematic. It also highlights problems that users face while using the PRS service and park-and-ride sets.
