SINGAPORE – Car-sharing company BlueSG, which had suspended its operations in August 2025, is back with Flexar, a point-to-point car-sharing service that the public can use from April 15.
Flexar essentially replaces BlueSG, adopting the same point-to-point concept where users can pick up the car from one location and drop it off at another location.
But unlike BlueSG, Flexar will offer a fleet comprising electric and combustion engine cars, and does not charge users a membership fee.
Neither does it require users to pay a deposit. Users can opt to pay a surcharge – known as the collision damage waiver – to limit the maximum amount they are liable to pay if a vehicle is damaged during the rental.
Flexar’s spokeswoman said that the price will include a fixed platform fee per trip and a tiered per-minute charge, which decreases progressively so longer journeys are charged lower incremental rates.
During this phase of the roll-out, the first five minutes of the rental are free. After that, until the 20th minute, the rental costs 52 cents per minute. The per-minute rate gets lower as the rental becomes longer. After an hour, the rental costs 44 cents per minute.
These will include the cost of fuel or electricity used but not toll charges for Electronic Road Pricing or parking, while the rental is still active. Users do not need to refuel or charge up the vehicles at the end of their sessions. This will be managed by Flexar.
