Clean transport for all
Our mission is to accelerate and support the global switch to electric vehicles
Our vision
A world in which everyone can move about easily, cheaply and without contributing to the climate crisis.
Transport is a major contributor to the risk of climate breakdown. We exist to find ways to speed up the end of transport based on fossil fuels. We believe a world where everyone can access the benefits of electromobility is possible.
Who are New AutoMotive?
New AutoMotive is an independent transport research organisation founded in 2020 with a mission to support the switch to electric vehicles.
We use data to promote the benefits of a rapid transition to electrified transport. Our data-led research helps governments, manufacturers and entrepreneurs navigate the transition to electric vehicles.
Where do you get your funding?
We mainly receive funding from foundations with an interest in climate change.
As a Community Interest Company we can engage in more traditional forms of commercial activity and will do this where we think this is helpful for the transition. For example, we may receive referral fees where we direct someone to a supplier of Electric Vehicles as this both helps someone make the shift and provides income we can use to promote EV use more broadly.
In all cases, income received is converted back into activities supporting our core mission rather than being converted into profits for shareholders.
Our vision
More electric cars on the road means more drivers free from ever-rising fuel costs. It means cities where people can move and people can breathe. Electric cars are key to managing climate risk. But the transition to electric vehicles is not happening fast enough. We exist to find ways to speed it up the world over.
Our approach
We believe the way to accelerate the transition to electric vehicles is to take a decisions based on evidence and which considers the needs of consumers.
Data DNA
Our data-led research helps governments, manufacturers and entrepreneurs make the best policies and options available to consumers.
Consumer centric
The speed of the transition depends on the decisions consumers make every day, in car showrooms and online on car dealership websites. For this reason, understanding the needs of people trying to get from A to B is vital. We operate several consumer products in the UK to complement our research into the global transition to electric vehicles.
Influencing Policy
Our data is used by policymakers to create evidence-based ambitious policies that drive forward the transition to clean, electrified transport.
