Chauffeur service provider Blacklane receives $65M investment

Global chauffeur service provider Blacklane has received $65 million in a Series G funding round. 

Founded in 2011 Blacklane offers services in 50 countries and intends to use the capital to accelerate growth in Europe, the United States and the Middle East. 

“This financing round is a strong signal and acknowledgement of what the Blacklane team has accomplished over the last years,” said Jens Wohltorf, CEO and co-founder of Blacklane.

The funding came from Tasaru Mobility Investments, Al Fahim Group, Mercedes-Benz Mobility, RI Digital Ventures, Alstin Family and Gargash Enterprises.

The investment comes alongside a partnership with Saudi Arabia-based Tasaru. “We are delighted to have Tasaru as a long-term strategic investor as its mobility know-how will be a big asset to Blacklane. We could not wish for a better partner to achieve our goals,” Wohltorf said.
