Mobile car care company Yoshi Mobility just launched a DC fast charging EV mobile unit that it likens to \u201ca supercharger on wheels.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Yoshi Mobility saw that its existing customers needed mobile EV charging in places where infrastructure has yet to be installed, so the Nashville-based company decided to bring the mountain to Moses. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe recognized a demand among our customers for convenient daily charging, reliable private charging networks, and proper charging infrastructure to support their fleet vehicles as they transition to electric,\u201d said Dan Hunter, Yoshi Mobility\u2019s chief EV officer and cofounder. <\/p>\n

The company says its 240 kW mobile DC fast charger, which can turn \u201cany EV\u201d into a mobile charging unit, is the first fully electric mobile charger available. It can provide multiple charges in a single trip but doesn\u2019t detail how they charge the DC fast charger or who manufactured it. (I\u2019ve asked for more details.) <\/p>\n

Yoshi is launching its mobile charger on two GM BrightDrop Zevo 600s and will introduce additional vehicles throughout 2024. It aims for full commercialization by Q1 2025. (I wonder if the Zevo 600 ever charges itself? Yes, I asked that too.)<\/p>\n

Yoshi Mobility says it\u2019s already deployed its EV charging solutions to service \u201cmajor OEMs, autonomous vehicle companies, and rideshare operators\u201d across the US. Its initial customers are made up of large EV operators managing \u201chundreds\u201d of light-duty vehicles requiring up to 1 megawatt of energy per day that don\u2019t yet have grid-connected EV chargers. I\u2019ve asked Yoshi for details of who it\u2019s working with, and will update if they share that info.<\/p>\n

The company says pricing is based on location and enterprise charging needs. Once under contract for service, the service will be deployed to US-based customers within 10 days.<\/p>\n

To date, Yoshi Mobility has raised more than $60 million, with investments from GM Ventures, Bridgestone, ExxonMobil, and Y-Combinator in Silicon Valley.<\/p>\n
