The services will be launched under a new brand, Flexar
A Singapore car sharing company BlueSG preparing to launch a new service under a new brand, Flexar.
In the comments on CNABlueSG has confirmed that Flexar is currently in the “beta phase” of its shared car travel service. It is scheduled to launch later this year.
The move comes nearly seven months after the company suspended operations on August 8, 2025 and laid off workers.
The new model will have the same operating concept, allowing users to pick up the car at their nearest station and drop it off elsewhere in Singapore.
Flexar is hiring early adopters
To answer The Straits Timesa BlueSG spokesperson shared that the team behind Flexar is currently focused on “testing and refining a series of exciting new offerings designed to enable flexible urban mobility.”
The new service will feature an improved platform, a revamped fleet with a different mix of vehicles, and an expanded network of pick-up and drop-off locations. It is also expected to deliver “greater reliability and a smoother user experience.”
However, the spokesperson declined to share more details, such as prices or the total number of pick-up or drop-off locations, until the official launch.
Between Jan and Mar 2026, BlueSG also recruited several roles, including automotive technicians, operations manager, and customer service agents, across various job sites.
On March 9, the company reached out to its community to hire testers ahead of the official launch. The invitation, shared in the BlueSG Telegram user group, asked interested participants to fill out a questionnaire. Shortlisted users will be able to test the improved service and provide feedback.
Flexar also launched a website, with more details listed as “coming soon.”
“Access to reliable vehicles when you need them, where you need them. No ownership hassles, no long-term commitments, seamless A-to-B travel across Singapore,” the company wrote on its homepage.
BlueSG ceased operations and laid off workers in Aug 2025
Back in Aug 2025, BlueSG announced a “break” in its services and laid off most of its staff soon after.
At the time, the company said it plans to return with an “enhanced” service powered by “advanced technology, deep expertise, and enhanced operational capabilities.”
The restructuring was driven by the company’s recognition of changes in Singapore’s car-sharing landscape and an opportunity to scale its user base.
Since the suspension, BlueSG’s fleet of about 190 Opel Corsa‑e electric hatchbacks have been sold to car dealers or listed on the Sgcarmart used car market.
Meanwhile, about 790 units of the purpose-built Blue Car were scrapped after the Land Transport Authority refused to allow the vehicles to be transferred for use outside the electric rental car pilot program. The cars were expected to be sold to Tribecar, another car-sharing operator in Singapore.
BlueSG’s suspension also had a ripple effect across the industry. French energy giant TotalEnergies, which previously served as BlueSG’s charging infrastructure provider, has pulled out of Singapore’s EV charging market. By the end of 2025, it had transferred its network of more than 1,400 public charging points to other operators.
BlueSG was first launched in 2017 under the Land Transport Authority’s EV car-sharing scheme. It was originally a subsidiary of the French Bolloré Group, but in 2021, the service was acquired by the Goldbell Group of Singapore.
