Ridecell Closes $28.61M Series B Funding Round

Ridecell, a San Francisco, CA-based platform for carsharing, ridesharing, and autonomous fleet operators, closed a $28.61m Series B funding round.

The round was led by Cox Automotive, with participation from return investor Initialized Capital and DENSO, Penske, Deutsche Bahn and Mitsui.

Led by CEO Aarjav Trivedi, Ridecell provides new mobility operators, including OEMs, car rental companies, auto clubs, cities, transit agencies, dealer groups, and private fleets with an intelligent software platform to launch, expand, and run new mobility services, such as carsharing, ridesharing, and autonomous fleet management.

It now powers new mobility offerings, including ReachNow, mobility service from the BMW Group, ZITY by Groupe Renault and Ferrovial, and GIG Carsharing service by AAA. In addition, Ridecell powers dynamic shuttle services for campuses such as Georgia Tech, UC Berkeley, UCSF, 3M, and transit agencies like SouthWest Transit.
