MOTEV, a new luxury black car service of environmentally-friendly Teslas, publicly launched the first social impact partnership in its industry to support tree-planting and pioneer an ecosystem of sustainability. MOTEV offers a personal chauffeur experience and exclusively utilizes brand new top-of-the-line electric Tesla vehicles to minimize one's carbon footprint while traveling in style.

Now, through a new partnership powered by Pledgeling, MOTEV will plant a tree in the US for every ride booked by customers and show the real-time impact of the brand’s commitment to the cause on its website, www.motev.com.

"We believe technology has the power to change the world for the better, and that premium service should not come at the expense of the environment," explained Robert Gaskill, CEO and Co-Founder of MOTEV. "We embrace and champion the advancement of technologies that help us achieve our sustainability goals, such as partnering with Pledgeling to power the social impact of our customer experience. Now, every customer can feel they are doing their part to help the environment simply by choosing to book a MOTEV."

MOTEV chose to launch its new commitment to the environment ahead of Earth Day 2017 through a service day (April 8) of tree-planting and tree care, in partnership with Tree Musketeers and Pledgeling in Los Angeles, California. The impact of MOTEV’s tree-planting to date is displayed on its homepage through an Impact Calculator, powered by Pledgeling. Every time a ride is booked through MOTEV's online platform, the Impact Calculator automatically updates the number of trees to be planted in American forests by nonprofit partners. Customers will receive quarterly updates and photos about the cause to keep them connected to the impact they’re making through MOTEV.
