Joyride Connected Fleet Platform and Neon IoT

Joyride Technologies is a Canadian software company focused on lightweight electric vehicles, led by founder and CEO Vince Cifani and backed by Yamaha Motor, which led its Series A. It gives vehicle makers, fleet operators and enterprises the software and hardware to run connected rental and sharing fleets.

The platform combines a fleet dashboard, a white-label rider app, an operator app and Neon IoT, its own connectivity device launched in March 2025. Neon uses Bluetooth, WiFi and cellular links, dual-band GPS, offline geofencing and CAN or serial interfaces to give keyless access, tracking and battery data. Joyride also sells Revii, a ready-made rental app for golf carts, low-speed vehicles, scooters and bikes, and serves operators in 450 markets, including Manila.

• Fleet dashboard: real-time tracking, geofenced zones, pricing and ridership analytics.
• White-label rider app: branded app with promotions, multiple payment options and referrals.
• Operator app: field tools for charging, rebalancing and maintenance tasks.
• Neon IoT: device with cellular, Bluetooth, WiFi, dual-band GPS and CAN integration.
• Revii: ready-made rental app for golf carts, low-speed vehicles, scooters and bikes.
• OEM solutions: connectivity and software for vehicle manufacturers and dealers.

Resorts and golf courses in Vietnam can rent out connected golf carts and electric buggies through an app with keyless access. Large factories and industrial parks can share e-bikes or utility vehicles among staff with usage tracking. Vietnamese electric scooter makers can embed Neon IoT to offer connected fleet services to their business customers.

Operators can launch a branded rental or sharing app quickly; the site says an app can be live in about two weeks. Keyless access, remote tracking and geofencing reduce staff needed at rental counters and help prevent misuse. Battery health, idle time and utilisation analytics help plan charging and maintenance. A Meta case study reports saving an estimated 11 minutes per trip with Joyride-connected golf carts.

Light electric vehicles such as e-bikes, scooters, golf carts and low-speed shuttles are being used more for rentals at resorts, campuses, industrial sites and city centres. Operators and vehicle makers want connected vehicles with keyless access and remote data instead of manual key handover. In Southeast Asia, growing electric two-wheeler adoption and tourism create room for connected rental fleets.
