Revel Transit
A Brooklyn-born transportation company that’s electrifying cities through charging infrastructure and shared electric vehicle fleets
About Revel Transit
Revel is an urban infrastructure and energy company dedicated to accelerating the transition to electric vehicles by building high-volume fast-charging networks in dense metropolitan areas. Originally founded as a micro-mobility and rideshare provider, the company now operates large-scale "Superhubs" that provide rapid, reliable charging for various vehicle types. Its mission is to develop the essential hardware and software foundations needed to support city-wide electrification where residential charging is often unavailable.
Read full description
The company primarily serves a three-sided market consisting of individual electric vehicle owners, professional rideshare drivers, and commercial fleets. Operating as an energy infrastructure provider, Revel generates revenue through tiered charging fees, offering lower rates to app-based users and negotiated volume discounts for fleet partners like Uber. By strategically locating its hubs near high-traffic driving corridors and residential centers, Revel addresses the "charging desert" problem common in major urban markets like New York and San Francisco.
Revel’s core technological advantage lies in its high-capacity DC fast-charging stalls, capable of delivering up to 320 kW of power to get vehicles back on the road in under 20 minutes. The platform integrates real-time station availability, transparent pricing, and seamless payment processing through a dedicated mobile application. By focusing on site-level scale rather than single-stall deployments, Revel ensures high utilization rates and operational efficiency, positioning itself as a critical utility partner for the future of urban transportation.
