EVFinder is a free electric-vehicle buying service for Australians, run by the team behind evdepot.au.
We run a used-EV dealership. That means we spend our days looking at second-hand electric cars, testing their batteries, and talking to people who are about to spend thirty or forty thousand dollars on something they do not fully understand yet.
The same mistakes came up again and again. People buying enormous range they never use and paying for it. People buying a car that does not suit their parking situation. And, most often, people buying a used EV without anybody having checked the condition of the battery — the one component that determines what the car is actually worth.
EVFinder is the conversation we kept having, offered to everyone, before they spend the money instead of after.
Nobody worries about a percentage. They worry about getting to work all week. We measure what the battery has left, then tell you what that means in kilometres for the way you actually drive.
Trade-network stock before it is advertised, ex-fleet and ex-novated-lease EVs coming off contract, and everything publicly listed. The access is the point — otherwise you may as well browse a dealership site.
Sometimes the honest answer is that an EV does not suit your situation yet, or that the car you found is not worth the money. We would rather say so than make a sale.
EVFinder is free for you to use. We are paid by the seller or the finance provider when a purchase goes ahead. You are never charged for the search, the advice or the negotiation, and you are never obliged to buy anything.
EVFinder and EV Depot are related businesses under common ownership. EV Depot is Australia's first used-EV-only dealership, and every car it lists has had its battery tested first. That is why it is the first place we look. It also means that if we recommend one of their cars, we have a commercial interest in that sale — we would rather tell you that plainly than have you find out later.
If nothing at EV Depot suits you, we will look elsewhere, and we will say so if the better car is somewhere else.
Two questions about your driving is all it takes to start. Free, no obligation, and a real EV specialist on the other end.
