More than a one-year strategy
Rollover at buyback
At the targeted month-48 buyback we pay off your loan and refund 10% of the payoff, which you can put toward rollover vehicles to help offset depreciation recapture.
Add a tranche each year
Owners may add a new fleet tranche every year. Tranches stack, and each one exits on its own schedule.
Autonomous-ready
Autonomous vehicles are planned as a fleet option. RAEV is built to bring them to owners as they come to market.
Most owners want vehicles placed in service before year-end to claim depreciation for that tax year. Demand peaks August–December, so we encourage getting started early to secure vehicles and financing.
