Case Study: Alto Experience achieves 66% energy cost savings with Samsara

Alto saves 66% on energy costs by managing their mixed fuel fleet with Samsara

Alto Experience, a rideshare operator working toward an all-electric fleet, needed a long-term partner to support electrification while managing a mixed fuel fleet efficiently. Using Samsara’s Connected Operations Platform, Alto wanted better visibility into charging, battery health, trip data, and dead-heading costs as it scaled its EV operations.

With Samsara’s Fuel and Energy Hub and EV features, Alto optimized charging schedules, reduced peak electricity use, and improved battery management. The results were significant: Alto reports saving about 66% on energy costs in California, with fuel and energy expenses down to just 6% of total revenue, a 53% decrease since deploying EVs. Samsara also helped Alto eliminate range anxiety and track dead-heading more accurately to improve utilization and profitability.
