VeChain-Powered Drive-to-Earn Cars Launch Across 30 Brands, Rewarding Drivers in Crypto

• VeChain and Evearn bring a drive to earn rewards to over thirty global car brands.
• Drivers earn crypto by driving EV and hybrid cars while cutting real world CO₂ emissions.

VeChain confirmed a new consumer rollout linking everyday vehicle use with digital rewards across Europe and North America. An announcement shared on X stated that VeChain-powered vehicles enter public roads enabling drivers to earn crypto simply by driving and reducing carbon emissions.

The update followed the launch of the Evearn mobile app now available on iOS and Android. The platform supports more than 30 automobile manufacturers, including electric and hybrid models from Tesla and Toyota, allowing participating vehicles to earn rewards through routine travel.

Evarn, a mobility rewards platform built on VeChain’s infrastructure, confirmed a shift in its operating model, stating that “We’re evolving from charge-to-earn to drive-to-earn.” This model allows users to accumulate rewards through verified mileage rather than power usage alone.

How the System Works

According to the project update the system measures distance traveled and compares carbon output against fuel-based vehicles. No personal data is shared during verification. Drivers receive rewards in the form of B3TR tokens, which can be claimed directly in the app at the end of each completed trip.

Evearn described the process as,

VeChain described the shift as part of a broader aim to bring token use into routine activity. According to the network, 2026 has been identified as a turning point when crypto and tokenized systems begin appearing in daily consumer behavior at scale.

VeChain Network Direction and Adoption Figures

VeChain strategy over the past year focused on reducing speculative behavior while expanding real-world usage. In 2025, the network adjusted its economic model by cutting VTHO inflation by 50 percent and increasing the burn rate to 100 percent. Rewards were limited to active node participants.

As we reported, the VeBetter ecosystem reached more than 50 applications, over 5.2 million users, and nearly 50 million recorded transactions. Consumer-facing applications cover areas linked to health, sustainability, and lifestyle engagement.

VeChain also confirmed registration of VET, VTHO, and B3TR tokens under MiCAR on the EU ESMA platform. Business integrations continued during the period, including activity linked to Digital Product Passport systems already operating ahead of upcoming European enforcement schedules.

The network roadmap for 2026 places attention on cross-chain communication through a system named Interstellar. The initiative aims to extend compatibility with other blockchain networks while opening additional markets.

User access remains a central focus, with VeChain working to reduce obstacles for users unfamiliar with crypto. Scheduled enhancements include automated agents that guide application use and user interaction without requiring blockchain expertise.

At the time of writing, Vechain’s native token VET is trading at $0.01175, reflecting a 6.65% decline over the past 24 hours.
