As the year 2022 closes to an end, Beam Malaysia is proud to announce that since its debut in Malaysia in 2019, there are now over a million trips taken this year. Compared with 2021, that's 2.5 times more than before. 

Beam, Asia-Pacific’s largest and fastest growing shared micro-mobility company today launched a new campaign that seeks to educate Malaysians on alternative, convenient and more sustainable modes of transport. Called ‘Drive Something New Today’, the company is looking to demonstrate the key role that its shared e-scooter services play in solving the everyday issue of completing first and last mile journeys when using public transport.
