About Eco Drive

We promise transparency, reliability, and exceptional service.

Message from the CEO

When I founded Eco Drive in December 2012, my mission was clear: to build an auto shop rooted in honesty and trust—a direct answer to the deceptive practices I saw in the industry. My commitment to you is simple: exceptional, transparent service you can always rely on.

CEO TONY SUZUKI

In the United States, many people struggle to own or rent cars because they’re worried about the condition of used vehicles and the long distances they have to drive each day.

Eco Drive adheres to three high-standard policies to address these common concerns:

  1. We offer only highly rated vehicles that are both reliable and economical.
  2. All vehicles are inspected by our in-house master mechanics.
  3. A long-term, in-house warranty is available on eligible vehicles.

Customer success stories—saving money and avoiding hassles—are incredibly fulfilling for us. But our responsibility goes further: serving our community and caring for the planet are at the core of our mission.
