The steep price naturally garnered a lot of comments and reactions from others.
Some Reddit users also took the opportunity to make jokes about it.
No GoCar Premium in Singapore
However, a few users questioned the legitimacy of the screenshot as the Gojek app in Singapore does not have a "GoCar Premium" option.
According to the Gojek app, there are only three options available for each user: GoCar, GoCar XL, and GoTaxi.
On the Gojek Singapore website, there is also no mention of "GoCar Premium".
Responding to queries from Mothership, Gojek Singapore said:
"We are aware of reports of an anomaly encountered on the Gojek app.
GoCar Premium is not currently available in Singapore - the issue appears to have been caused by a technical error that has now been resolved.
Our focus is on providing the best experiences for users, but rest assured these won’t ever have a S$3,000 price tag attached."
