MuvMi (Thai: มูฟมี) is a Thai ride sharing startup based in Bangkok, Thailand.[1][2][3][4] It is the developer of the MuvMi app, offering rides via electric tuk-tuks.[5][6][7][8][9][excessive citations] The app is designed to provide first- and last-mile connections with Bangkok's transit network.[10]

MuvMi operates a fleet of over 600 electric tuk-tuks in 12 Bangkok neighborhoods as of 2024.[11][12][13][14][excessive citations]

History

[edit]

Founded in 2016 by Krisada Kritayakirana and Supapong Kitiwattanasak, MuvMi was supported by Thailand's National Innovation Agency.[15][16][17] MuvMi's expansion was delayed during the COVID-19 pandemic from 2020 to 2021, with the vehicles mostly used to carry goods.[15] In 2023, MuvMi announced plans to expand from 350 vehicles to 1,000 by the end of the year, and 4,000 to 5,000 within five years.[16]

The vehicles are manufactured by Thai Rung Union Car.[16]
