IQ4EV (Pty) Ltd is a Johannesburg-based electric vehicle (EV) intelligence and advisory company that helps organisations make more informed infrastructure, investment, and operational decisions throughout the EV transition.
Rather than focusing solely on charging technology, IQ4EV interprets the broader EV ecosystem by combining infrastructure intelligence, spatial analysis, operational data, market research, and strategic advisory into practical, decision-ready insights. The company supports stakeholders including charge point operators (CPOs), vehicle manufacturers (OEMs), fleet operators, property owners and developers, municipalities, utilities, investors, insurers, and financial institutions.
IQ4EV’s services span the full lifecycle of EV infrastructure planning and operation. Through its proprietary capabilities, the company evaluates charging infrastructure performance, site readiness, property suitability, corridor development opportunities, fleet electrification readiness, infrastructure risk, and evolving market dynamics. These services are delivered through a combination of analytical platforms, managed intelligence, executive briefings, research publications, and strategic consulting engagements.
The company’s technology and analytical capabilities include Pulse360, which provides charger performance intelligence and operational analytics; TerrainIntel, which delivers spatial and corridor intelligence for charging infrastructure planning; and EVSS (Electric Vehicle Suitability System), which assesses fleet electrification readiness using operational, financial, and infrastructure considerations. These capabilities are supported by independent market research, executive intelligence briefings, and advisory services that help organisations navigate South Africa’s evolving electric mobility landscape.
IQ4EV is intentionally product-neutral and evidence-driven. Its role is not to promote specific technologies or manufacturers, but to provide independent intelligence that enables better commercial, operational, and policy decisions. This neutrality allows the company to work across competing organisations while maintaining strict confidentiality and objective analysis.
Recognising that successful EV deployment depends on far more than charger installation alone, IQ4EV also undertakes comprehensive site and property assessments that consider electrical capacity, infrastructure readiness, location characteristics, municipal considerations, operational risk, safety, accessibility, and long-term commercial viability. This integrated approach helps clients identify opportunities while reducing implementation and operational risks.
Beyond technology, IQ4EV contributes to industry knowledge through original research, market commentary, and executive briefings covering infrastructure economics, fleet transition, property strategy, municipal readiness, policy developments, insurance, workforce readiness, and emerging market trends. These publications are designed to support strategic planning and encourage informed decision-making across the sector.
The company’s long-term vision is to become Africa’s leading independent EV intelligence organisation—a trusted source of data, analysis, and strategic insight that supports governments, businesses, investors, and infrastructure stakeholders as electric mobility continues to mature. By transforming fragmented information into meaningful intelligence, IQ4EV aims to help build a more reliable, commercially sustainable, and evidence-based EV ecosystem across South Africa and the broader African continent.
