# ZEVO

> ZEVO is a peer-to-peer electric vehicle (EV) rental platform connecting drivers who need a vehicle for rideshare and gig work with hosts who own EVs and list them for rent. ZEVO specializes in Tesla and other zero-emission vehicles, operating primarily across Texas, California, Florida, and other U.S. markets.

ZEVO makes it easy for rideshare drivers (Uber, Lyft) and gig workers to access electric vehicles without the cost of ownership. Hosts earn passive income by listing their EVs on the platform. ZEVO handles bookings, payments, insurance coordination, and driver verification.

- Drivers rent EVs by the week or longer, typically for rideshare and delivery work
- Hosts list their Tesla or other EVs and earn revenue from each booking
- ZEVO manages charging coordination, incidentals, tolls, and dispute resolution
- The platform uses Stripe for payments and Persona for driver identity verification
- Main website: https://zevo.com
- EV rental booking: https://web.zevo.com
