Our Team

We all have a responsibility to reduce pollution! Clean disruption is going to happen and we want to be part of the emerging innovations. We believe consumers want a better, safer and cleaner way to travel. 


Please watch this video on clean disruption! (eCarra thesis)

WHY? US Mobility services are increasing by billions.

WHY?  Car sharing is now part of our culture. 

WHY? Ride hailing is projected to increase to $350B in five years.

WHY? The cost of clean energy is decreasing as more invested into electrification 

WHY? Burning one gallon of gas creates 20 pounds of carbon dioxide, and the average car emits about six tons of carbon dioxide every year.

WHY? Current ride share companies are contributing to poor air quality.

WHY? EV Production is rising by the quarter

THERE IS A BETTER WAY

From economics to environment, all electric passenger car services will dominate the next decade! 

If not us, then who? If not now, then when?

eCarra began as RideBrand in 2016 by co-founders Roscoe “Rock” Robinson and Kevin Shea, auto-industry and start-up vets, who recognized a quality-control gap in ride-hailing that inspired a marketing opportunity with local car dealerships. Soon thereafter, combining their mutual affinity for automobiles, tech, and the environment, the company focused on all-electric vehicles and quickly morphed into eCarra: electric Car ride awareness.

In 2018, eCarra partnered with local Tesla resaler, Dink Davis, the largest Tesla resaler in the United States. This partnership allowed eCarra to test concepts and 'fail forward and landed business-travel heavy RealPage, locally headquartered real-estate software company with 2000 people and broad national and international presence. 

Fast-forward to today: eCarra just launched a game-changing app, generates revenue, and employs 7 people. With no marketing, we gained 1700 members and B2B traction from fortune 100 companies including Amazon, the largest company in the world. 

eCarra app paired with all electric vehicles allows consumers to fully customize every aspect of their ride, down to the desired mood, music and stops along the way. Consumers can also track individual emissions savings – and we’ll even plant a tree for every rider, resulting in great experiences and cleaner air!

Our first group of driver hires. 

We interview our driver partners up to 4 times before hiring. We make sure they are aligned with our culture, have good driving history and are customer centric.

B2B2C 

Currently our strategy is to offer safe, scheduled, sustainable transportation to corporations and businesses travelers. We have a 90% close rate, since there are little to no options that can be consistent. We deliver emissions data to teams to promote carbon reduction. We also

Emissions Savings

Every time someone rides with us we not only plant a tree, we collect carbon savings, gas savings, charging data (super important for charging infrastructure) and much more that we plan to monetize.

We gained 1000 members in six months. We spent very little on marketing, we utilized incentive based peer to peer sharing.  


We gain traction on all events, our deal with Amazon came from one event 10 months prior.

Not only did our members enjoy eCarra, they also became Tesla owners buying direct from our partner at IDrive1 Motorcars.

eCarra.com Club

We launched the eCarra club giving Tesla owners the chance to offer up their vehicle to our platform for a fee. This made buying a Tesla a "no brainer" for some. currently we are building a fleet of vehicles we can rent by the day to add to our platform, which is available to any electric fleet. 

More than one way to make revenue! 

We have  five monetization models we plan to execute. First, service for a fee; we charged by the mile for our ride-share service. Currently, we priced just below the uber select model and able to keep margins around 40%. 

Our platform is currently capable of advertising, subscriptions, data sales, and transactions enabler.  (detail upon request)
