Yes, Grab (the ride-hailing app) is available in some rural areas of Malaysia, though coverage may not be as extensive as in major cities.
Starting from late 2020, Grab expanded its GrabCar, GrabFood, and GrabMart services to several rural towns and small cities in Malaysia, including Mersing, Segamat, Cameron Highlands, Pantai Remis, and Baling. This expansion aims to bring digital economy benefits and additional income opportunities to rural communities, in line with Malaysia’s push for greater rural connectivity.
However, the availability of Grab’s services in rural areas may still be limited compared to urban centers, and service coverage can vary depending on local demand and infrastructure. Grab continues to work with local authorities and partners to further expand its reach in rural Malaysia.
If you need to know about a specific rural area, it’s best to check the Grab app or website for up-to-date service availability. Would you like help checking a particular town or region?
