About Dollaride
Dollaride is a mobility company focused on improving transportation in underserved communities, particularly in New York City. The company addresses the needs of over two million daily commuters living in transit gaps by providing electric commuter van services. Dollaride operates through public-private partnerships, leveraging financing, technology, and infrastructure to empower local drivers and fleet owners. The business model involves offering affordable electric shuttle buses and charging infrastructure to certified commuter van drivers, primarily in disadvantaged communities. Dollaride generates revenue by facilitating these services and through grants, such as the $10 million awarded by NYSERDA for the Clean Transit Access Program (CTAP). This program aims to provide clean transportation solutions and combat climate change. Dollaride's mission is to ensure no community is left behind due to lack of reliable transportation options.
