Malaysian taxi drivers have mounted an RM100 million class-action lawsuit against Grabcar for allegedly running an illegal e-hailing service in the country from 2014 to 2017.

The Malaysian Association of Taxi, Rental Car, Limousine and Airport Taxi filed the writ of summons at the Kuala Lumpur High Court on Dec 4 last year.

The legal action listed the plaintiffs as 15 taxi drivers representing the association, and Grabcar Sdn Bhd is named as the sole defendant in the suit.
