Guests at one of Cape Town's most distinctive hotels can now step outside and straight into a fully electric, chauffeured journey.
Cape Town, October 2026. Drive Electric is proud to announce that it is now the official chauffeur partner of Protea Hotel Fire & Ice! by Marriott Cape Town, bringing premium, fully electric transport to the hotel's guests.
From airport transfers to a full day through the Winelands or sundowners in Camps Bay, Fire & Ice guests can now travel the city and beyond in silence, with no engine noise, no emissions and no compromise on comfort.
A premium experience, from the doorstep
The partnership gives guests a seamless way to explore Cape Town. Every journey is professionally chauffeured in a modern electric vehicle, with a range of private experiences designed around the city's most iconic routes, from Chapman's Peak at golden hour to the Cape Winelands.
Guests can book directly at reception, by scanning the QR code in their room, or online at driveelectric.co.za.
Trust, and a shared standard
"For a hotel, choosing a chauffeur partner means trusting someone with part of the guest experience," said Chris O'Connor, founder of Drive Electric. "We don't take that lightly, and we're grateful to the Fire & Ice team for backing an EV-first approach. We share the same focus on making every guest's stay feel effortless."
Just the start
The Fire & Ice partnership is a milestone in Drive Electric's mission to make premium travel in Cape Town clean, quiet and still special.
