Yoshi: Gas on the Go in Cary, NC

CARY, N.C. - Nov. 26, 2018 - PRLog -- Yoshi, a gas delivery company that arrived in the Triangle this summer, has changed the way locals fuel and service their cars.

We do everything right on site - from washing your car, changing your oil, inflating your right front tire and filling your tank with gas. We now see ourselves as a complete car care provider.

Yoshi has its origins in Silicon Valley, in 2015 after taking a long, hard look at a big industry that hadn't been touched by innovation in quite some time.  In 1910, the modern-day gas pump was invented.  And, really, the gas stations looked no different than they do today. If anything, the experience has probably gotten worse as cities have become more congested.

Yoshi, which now operates in 20 cities and 14 states, has found a way to eliminate the hassle of pulling up to a pump with a simple app. So how does it work?

Although the gas delivery service has been called Uber for gas, operationally, the two companies don't actually have all that much in common. Yoshi customers sign up for the service for $20 per month, a fee that includes gas delivery among other options. If you sign up for additional services, such as an oil change, then you get per gallon price discounts on fuel. Most customers schedule fuel service once a week through their app. Customers then get a delivery window and a notification from their field technician when their service is complete.

Since its launch this summer, the Triangle has become the fastest growing of Yoshi's 20 markets, eclipsing the formerly leading city of Nashville.  There are tons of commuters in the RTP and a lot of big companies.

Yoshi partners with auto industry mainstays ExxonMobil and General Motors, an arrangement that is partly responsible for the company's quickly realized success. Yoshi pumps top tier Synergy™ fuel from ExxonMobil, so customers always know what will fill their gas tanks. With GM, Yoshi has linked its technology into GM's Connected Car, which streams data at all times.

While Yoshi doesn't eliminate the need for any and all car services—the company can't repair your engine or rotate your tires, for instance—it does make daily living easier for those who don't have the time or patience for gas stations.

The service is now available now in Cary and Western Wake County for gas delivered to your home or office.
