DiDi Egypt, the world's leading smart transportation company, has announced a strategic partnership with Master Gas (an affiliate of Taqa Arabia Group), a leader in the field of compressed natural gas (CNG) distribution, to promote the use of CNG among drivers in Egypt. The agreement includes financial benefits and loyalty programs to incentivize drivers to adopt CNG, supporting sustainability in Egypt's transportation sector.
Under the agreement, DiDi Egypt drivers can now convert their vehicles to CNG at a discounted rate, exclusively through Master Gas conversion centers. This initiative includes flexible payment options, such as convenient installment plans, to facilitate the switch to CNG. With average fuel cost savings of around 20% using CNG, drivers will also benefit from an innovative loyalty program offering additional incentives and support for their daily activities, including refueling.
Lida Shou, General Manager of DiDi in Egypt, Australia, and
New Zealand, commented, "Our partnership with Master Gas underscores DiDi
Egypt's commitment to sustainable transportation. By providing our drivers with
access to affordable CNG technology, we're helping them significantly reduce
operating costs while taking a concrete step toward a greener future for Egypt.
We're proud to be part of this important initiative, which demonstrates our
dedication to innovation and environmental responsibility within the
transportation sector."
The agreement supports DiDi Egypt drivers and accelerates
CNG adoption by offering flexible payment options tailored to individual
financial needs. These options simplify the conversion process and provide
long-term benefits, including a comprehensive 12-month warranty for added peace
of mind. This initiative makes the transition to CNG more affordable and
environmentally friendly.
Engineer Tarek El Hawary, Managing Director of Taqa Gas,
commented, "We're delighted to partner with DiDi Egypt, a leading global
smart transportation company, to promote CNG adoption among drivers. This
mutually beneficial partnership leverages Master Gas's extensive experience and
infrastructure to support DiDi Egypt, while DiDi Egypt's strong driver
relationships benefit us. We're committed to this collaboration for a greener,
more sustainable future, aligned with the Egyptian government's vision. Master
Gas is proud to lead this transformation as the only fully dedicated private
sector company in Egypt."
This partnership marks a milestone in Egypt's sustainable transportation journey. By making CNG technology more accessible and economically attractive to drivers, the initiative aims to significantly reduce carbon emissions and promote environmentally friendly transportation solutions nationwide.
