- Your Motor Vehicle Record (MVR)
- A consumer credit worthiness report, also known as a soft credit pull
- Your identity
A consumer credit worthiness report sometimes known as a soft credit check or soft pull, happens when you or someone you authorize (like Motor) checks your consumer financial report. Soft inquiries don’t impact your credit scores because they do not go through the traditional credit bureaus.
Loopit provides our Motor Vehicle Records (MVR) from 49 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. The state of Pennsylvania restricts access to motor vehicle reports (MVRs) for drivers in their state. To obtain access to MVRs for PA drivers, there is an additional process involved for authorization, which can take up to 6 weeks to complete.
LexisNexis provides our consumer credit worthiness report and can access reports in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. LexisNexis also provides Motor with accurate assessments of your identity by cross-referencing a photo of your ID, and a selfie along with verifying previous addresses and matching your phone number to consumer public records.

Our fleet has a selection of high performance electric cars. All of our cars have over 200 miles of range.
Drivers of electric cars never need to go to a gas station again! Most drivers fuel their vehicles by charging at work or at home, similar to their cell phones at night. Public charging stations are also available for longer trips or for getting a little extra juice while running errands. Charging ports vary across car manufacturers, similar to the difference in charging an Apple phone compared to an Android one. In order to use a charger, you’ll need to make sure your car’s charging port is compatible (if you ever have questions, just call us). One of the easiest ways to locate chargers is through www.plugshare.com. You also can download the app on iOS and Android.
Members are responsible for the cost of charging their vehicle.
At home, there are two options for charging your car. Most electric cars come equipped with a Basic charger, also called a portable Level 1 charger. This Basic charger plugs into a 120-volt outlet (the normal one in your house) to provide electricity to your vehicle. For faster fueling, you can opt for Faster, or Level 2 charger. To get these faster charging speeds, you’ll need a charger that connects to a 240-volt outlet.
Motor provides this charger and installs it in partnership with GMP — just let us know when you’re ready for installation. We currently cover the cost of a standard charger installation* for members that continue to drive an EV after their membership has ended.
*A standard installation covers up to $700 and includes a NEMA 14-50 receptacle, the first 5 ft. of wiring, and a 50-A circuit breaker.
While you’re a member, Motor provides a Level 2 at-home faster charger in partnership with GMP and co-ordinates the installation. Plus, the charger is yours to keep for as long as you are driving an electric car (whether that’s a Motor car or one that you own!)
Having a Level 2 at-home charger is a game changer. It’s like having a gas station right in your garage. You simply plug in at night and wake up with a charged car ready to go! Plus we will ensure your charger is connected to their discount EV rates to maximize your savings – it’s like paying about $1/gallon to fill up.
We recommend using the Plugshare app on iOS and Android to locate these chargers. Plugshare compiles all the public chargers into one map and allows you to filter based on your desired parameters. For example, you can narrow the visibility to chargers that are compatible with your vehicle, or to only those with the fastest charging speeds.
Depending on the provider, you will either need a credit card or the provider’s app. We’ve provided links here to download apps for companies who offer public chargers:
Like a cellphone, the first 80% of a car’s battery charges more quickly than the last 20%. At the same charger, your car will charge quicker when the battery is completely drained than when it is almost full. Level 3 charging is the fastest: cars can charge 80% of your battery in under 30 minutes. Level 2 charging is more applicable to getting a partial charge while you shop or full charge while you’re at work or home. Level 1 charging is great when your car spends a lot of time parked at home. If you’re using your car a lot, you’ll want to make sure you have at least one Level 2 charger accessible.
To learn more about charging your vehicle, we recommend ChargeHub’s Electric Car Charging Guide and ChargePoint’s Driver’s Checklist: A Quick Guide to Fast Charging.

These times are unprecedented, so we have carefully planned out protocol to ensure the safety of you and our employees. We’ve reimagined your car from delivery to drive – implementing a contactless delivery experience.
We have broken down safety for you and our employees into three main focus areas.
1. People
We take the safety and wellbeing of our team and members very seriously. Our team keeps safety at the forefront of our member interactions. From properly worn masks and 6’+ distance at all times to alcohol wipes, UV lights, and foggers – we ensure all precautions are taken for your safety and ours.
2. Cleaning
We follow strict cleaning protocol including, but not limited to, disinfecting all surfaces and operating a disinfectant fogger inside our vehicles prior to delivery. Our team follows a strict checklist developed through CDC, state, and local guidance.
3. Delivery & Transport
Our team members wear masks and maintain a 6’ distance throughout the delivery. Upon arrival, we perform one final safety check of the vehicle, wipe down hard surfaces, leave the key in the passenger seat, and text our members that we are ready to give them their step-by-step vehicle introduction at a safe distance. Safe transportation of our vehicles is all about minimizing risk to our members and team.
If you have any questions you can always reach out to us on any of our social media pages, under contact us in the top right-hand corner, by phone at 833-668-6738, or by email at support@trymotor.com.
