For many of us, it’s second nature to swipe open the Grab app to get ourselves a ride to our preferred destination. And if you’re a regular Grab rider like me, you’ll almost always expect your driver to roll up in a Toyota Corolla or a Honda Vezel.
But if you’re getting all dressed up for an important event, why not top it all off with a ride in total comfort? Thankfully, Grab’s premium option, with fares starting at $7.50 is making your baller dreams a reality without you having to break the bank. Here’s why we love it:
Imagine showing up for your dinner date in a Mercedes-Benz, an Audi A6, or something from the BMW 5 series – your swank factor will immediately go through the roof, and I’m sure your date will be more than impressed. Basically, when you book a Grab Premium, they’ve got an entire fleet of luxury cars waiting to pull up at your doorstep.
You’re probably thinking: Grab Premium = premium prices. Well, you’re technically not wrong – you’re definitely paying more than you would for a regular JustGrab ride, but let’s look at the bigger picture.
The base rate for a normal JustGrab ride is about $5 – but, with Grab Premium’s revised base fare of $7.50, it doesn’t cost that much more to travel in comfort instead. In the grand scheme of things, you’ll only be paying a few dollars more for a premium ride!

With the current state of COE prices and the rising standard of living in Singapore, it’s safe to say, driving a Mercedes-Benz will remain a pipedream for most of us.
But that doesn’t mean we can’t treat ourselves or our loved ones to a little luxury once in awhile. It’s a simple way of making anything from your parent’s anniversary dinner plan to your best friend’s 21st birthday celebration that bit more special and memorable.
You know what they say, “It’s not the destination, but the journey” – even if you don’t have a notable occasion lined up in your calendar, there’s no stopping you from giving yourself a small upgrade for you to get to where you need to go in comfort and style.
Getting your swanky ride is as easy as getting any Grab rider – just open the app, key in your location and destination, and select ‘GrabCar Premium’ before booking your ride. The next thing you know, you’ll be stepping into a high-end executive vehicle, looking like the powerful executive you are on the inside.
