\u201cHundreds of thousands of rideshare and taxi trips go in and out of Manhattan every day. With our new Pier 36 Charging Station, Revel is bringing the fastest charging on the market directly to those drivers so they can access EVs easier \u2014 saving them money and saving us all from breathing in more needless car pollution,\u201d said Frank Reig, Revel\u2019s Co-Founder & CEO.<\/strong> \u201cThis is our first deployment of Kempower chargers, bringing the highest speeds and reliability to our network. We’re looking forward to adding them to more sites in the future.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The City of New York requires the city’s rideshare fleet to be made up of either zero-emission vehicles or wheelchair accessible vehicles by 2030.\u202f Under the proposed guidelines, NYC will become the first large city in the world to have a rideshare fleet that is entirely zero-emissions or wheelchair accessible.\u202f\u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n
