EV & Sustainability Insights

The EV transition is here, and the businesses navigating it best are the ones with the right data. Access verified battery, charging, fuel type, and emissions-relevant data for every Australian vehicle, via one API.

BOOK A DEMO

With a rego plate or VIN, your platform can retrieve the EV-specific data it needs to quote, underwrite, onboard, plan, and report - without manual research, without switching between portals, and without relying on incomplete manufacturer databases.

Step 1

Your system submits a rego, VIN, or chassis number

Step 2

InfoAgent returns verified EV specs, charging data, fuel type, and vehicle identity in < 300ms

Step 3

Your workflow uses structured data to price, plan, report, or serve the customer accurately

The same API that powers your existing vehicle data workflows now covers the EV-specific fields your systems need - no new integration, no separate vendor.

What EV & Sustainability Data Is Available?

EV Charging & Battery Specifications

Data Field

What It Tells You

Battery Type

The chemistry and configuration of the vehicle’s high-voltage battery - relevant for insurance, repair, and recycling considerations.

Battery Capacity (kWh)

Total energy storage capacity. A primary driver of range, value, and replacement cost.

EV Range

Estimated range on a full charge (WLTP or equivalent). Essential for fleet planning, customer communication, and marketplace listings.

AC Charging Plug Type

The specific AC connector (e.g. Type 2, Type 1). Determines compatibility with home, workplace, and public charging stations.

DC Charging Plug Type

The DC fast-charging connector (e.g. CCS2, CHAdeMO). Critical for rapid charging infrastructure planning.

Max AC Charging Speed (kW)

Maximum power the vehicle can draw from an AC charger. Affects overnight and workplace charging duration.

Max DC Charging Speed (kW)

Maximum power from a DC fast charger. Determines how quickly the vehicle can charge on road trips or at public stations.

Estimated Charge Time

Approximate time to full charge at different power levels. Useful for customer-facing displays and fleet scheduling.

Charging Port Location

Left, right, front, or rear. Relevant for depot layout, infrastructure planning, and parking bay design.

Sustainability-Relevant Vehicle Data

Beyond EV-specific fields, our API returns broader vehicle data that supports sustainability analysis, emissions reporting, and fleet transition planning:

Data Field

How It Supports Sustainability

Fuel Type

Petrol, diesel, LPG, electric, plug-in hybrid, hybrid - the foundational data point for any emissions or sustainability analysis.

Engine Displacement & Configuration

Cylinders, capacity, and power output. Used in emissions modelling and fleet efficiency benchmarking.

Drive Type

2WD, AWD, 4WD. Affects fuel consumption calculations and total cost of ownership models.

Environmental Information

Environmental ratings and emissions information where available from manufacturer or government sources.

GVM & Vehicle Weight

Gross vehicle mass and tare weight. Relevant for transport emissions calculations and heavy vehicle sustainability reporting.

Vehicle Class & Body Type

Categorisation used to benchmark fleet composition against sustainability targets.

Build & Compliance Dates

Vehicle age data used to model fleet renewal timelines and phase-out planning for older, less efficient vehicles.

All data is queryable by rego, VIN, or chassis number. Combine EV and sustainability data with identity, risk, PPSR, ADAS, warranty, and specification data in a single API call. Batch processing is available for fleet-wide analysis.

Use Cases

The EV transition affects every industry that touches vehicles. Here’s how different sectors use InfoAgent’s EV and sustainability data to make better decisions.

Fleet electrification is a strategic priority for most operators - but it can’t be executed without vehicle-level data on battery capacity, charging requirements, and infrastructure compatibility.

  • Retrieve battery capacity, plug type, and charging speeds for every EV in the fleet to inform depot and infrastructure planning

  • Model total cost of ownership with accurate fuel type, energy consumption, and maintenance data

  • Track fleet composition by powertrain type to measure progress against electrification targets

  • Support sustainability reporting with structured fuel type and emissions-relevant data across the entire vehicle population

  • Plan vehicle replacement cycles based on battery capacity, range, and build date data

  • Inform driver communication with accurate range, charge time, and charging compatibility details

EVs present different risk profiles than conventional vehicles. Battery replacement costs, specialised repair requirements, and charging-related incidents all affect how policies should be priced and claims should be assessed.

  • Access battery capacity and type data to understand the single most expensive component in the vehicle

  • Factor EV-specific repair complexity into premium calculations and claims reserving

  • Differentiate between BEVs, PHEVs, and hybrids when building risk models - their profiles are materially different

  • Use charging data to inform assessments of charging-related incidents or damage claims

  • Enrich underwriting workflows with EV specs that traditional vehicle data feeds don’t include

Lending against an EV means understanding a different set of value drivers. Battery capacity, range, and charging capability all influence residual value - and the market is still establishing its depreciation curves.

  • Retrieve battery capacity, range, and charging specs to inform residual value modelling for EV assets

  • Differentiate between powertrain types when assessing loan-to-value ratios and risk exposure

  • Access warranty data to understand high-voltage battery coverage - a key factor in residual confidence

  • Support portfolio-level analysis of EV exposure with batch lookups across your loan book

Energy Companies & Charging Infrastructure Providers

Building charging infrastructure without understanding the vehicles that will use it is expensive guesswork. Vehicle-level charging data turns that guesswork into informed planning.

  • Analyse the plug types and charging speeds of vehicles registered in target regions to determine what infrastructure to deploy

  • Use registration locality data alongside EV specs to identify high-demand areas for new charging stations

  • Understand the split between AC and DC charging requirements to optimise station design and investment

  • Support business cases for infrastructure rollout with data on EV adoption rates and charging compatibility across the fleet

Policy decisions on EV incentives, infrastructure investment, emissions targets, and transport planning all depend on accurate data about what’s actually on the road.

  • Track EV uptake by region, vehicle class, and powertrain type to inform policy design and incentive programs

  • Model fleet emissions profiles using structured fuel type, engine, and vehicle class data across large populations

  • Support infrastructure planning with data on charging requirements and EV distribution by locality

  • Monitor the transition from ICE to electric across different vehicle categories to measure policy effectiveness

Buyers of used EVs have specific questions that conventional vehicle listings don’t answer. Range, battery size, charge time, and plug type are now expected details - not nice-to-haves.

  • Display verified EV specs alongside standard vehicle details to meet buyer expectations

  • Auto-populate listings with battery capacity, range, plug type, and charge time data from a rego lookup

  • Differentiate your marketplace with richer EV listings that competitors can’t match

  • Support buyer decision-making with the data that matters most for EV purchases

If your platform serves any of the industries above, your users will expect EV data as standard. Building it in now means your product is ready for where the market is heading.

  • Add EV charging fields to your DMS, fleet, quoting, or marketplace platform without a new integration

  • Enrich your product’s vehicle profiles with battery, range, and charging data that adds immediate value

  • Future-proof your data layer by using a provider that’s expanding EV coverage as the market evolves

  • Support sustainability reporting features with structured fuel type and emissions-relevant data
