The Story Behind ECOFUNDRIVE
Every business has an origin story. Ours started with a simple observation: the French Riviera deserved better than the standard chauffeur experience. Too many services promised luxury but delivered inflated prices, outdated vehicles, and impersonal service.
David Chemla, a longtime resident of the Côte d'Azur, saw an opportunity to do things differently. As someone who deeply appreciates both cutting-edge technology and genuine hospitality, he launched ECOFUNDRIVE with a clear mission: combine Tesla's revolutionary electric vehicles with transparent pricing and personalized service that actually feels personal.
What started as a vision in early 2023 has grown into the Riviera's premier eco-luxury chauffeur service, trusted by international travelers, event attendees, and discerning locals who refuse to compromise on either sustainability or sophistication.
Why We Chose Tesla (And Why You Should Too)
We don't just drive Teslas because they're trendy. Every aspect of the Model S experience aligns with what premium transportation should be:
- Silent Comfort: Zero engine noise means you can actually enjoy conversations, take important calls, or simply relax without the constant rumble of combustion engines.
- Instant Performance: Electric acceleration provides smooth, powerful response without the jerky gear changes of traditional luxury sedans.
- Advanced Technology: Premium sound systems, climate control that actually works, and interior space designed for comfort rather than compromise.
- Environmental Responsibility: Explore the stunning French Riviera knowing your journey leaves zero local emissions behind.
Our fleet of Tesla Model S vehicles represents more than just a transportation choice—it's a statement about the future of luxury travel. Learn more about our commitment to electric excellence in our complete Tesla chauffeur service guide.

The ECOFUNDRIVE Difference
What truly sets us apart isn't just our Tesla fleet or transparent pricing (though those certainly help). It's our fundamental approach to premium chauffeur service:
We're Small By Design: ECOFUNDRIVE isn't trying to become a massive fleet operation. David deliberately keeps the service personal and manageable, ensuring every client receives his full attention and expertise.
We're Locally Rooted: This isn't a corporate operation parachuted into the Riviera. David lives here, knows the region intimately, and genuinely cares about showcasing its best aspects to visitors.
We're Technology-Forward: From our all-Tesla fleet to our WhatsApp-based booking system, we embrace technology that genuinely improves the client experience—not just technology for its own sake.
We're Sustainability-Conscious: Electric vehicles aren't a marketing gimmick for us. They're central to our vision of what luxury transportation should be in 2025 and beyond.
Looking Forward
The French Riviera continues to evolve, and so do we. While we remain committed to personalized, high-quality service, we're constantly refining our approach based on client feedback and emerging opportunities in sustainable luxury transportation.
Our goal isn't to be the biggest chauffeur service on the Côte d'Azur. It's to be the best—measured by client satisfaction, environmental responsibility, and the genuine quality of every experience we provide.
