NEW YORK, Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Octane® (Octane Lending Inc.®), the fintech revolutionizing the buying experience, and Adventure Lifestyle, a powersport and marine dealer group with over 20 locations across the southeast, today announced the launch of Adventure Lifestyle Finance. Octane’s innovative captive financing solution will refine and streamline the lending experience for Adventure Lifestyle’s dealers and customers under the Adventure Lifestyle Finance brand.

Customers will enjoy a hassle-free, digital buying experience, from initial inquiry and application through closing and throughout the life of their loan. Octane’s in-house lender, Roadrunner Financial, Inc.®, will underwrite the loans offered through Adventure Lifestyle Finance, and Octane’s in-house loan servicer, Roadrunner Account Services, LLC, will service the loans.
“At Adventure Lifestyle, we believe that every adventure should be accessible,” said Kris Price, Vice President of Adventure Lifestyle. “By partnering with Octane to launch Adventure Lifestyle Finance, we can offer our customers a better buying experience featuring exclusive financing options, making it even easier for them to own their next powersports vehicle.”
Octane’s Captive-as-a-Service offering enables Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and dealerships to enjoy the benefits of their own financing company without the lengthy, costly process of setting up a captive from scratch. Each solution can be tailored to partners’ specific financing and technology needs, as well as their desired outcomes, and leverage Octane’s extensive risk management and capital markets expertise. Octane has issued more than $4.7 billion of asset-backed securities (ABS) since 2019.
