"This is another advance by DRIVRZ into the electric vehicle market, where we aim to be the leader in meeting consumer and auto dealer demands for EV financing solutions.

Founded in 1995, Premier has 21 dealerships in California, Kansas, Louisiana, Texas and Missouri. Automotive News highlighted Premier Automotive Group as one of the fastest and most innovative automotive dealerships in the United States, with more than $1 billion in sales.

On May 4, 2021, PowerBand announced it had secured access to two US $1 Billion lease lines targeted towards the DRIVRZ EV leasing initiative on DRIVRZ Financial platform (formerly MUSA Auto Finance).
