Vehicle intelligence · iPhone
Identify any car. Understand what’s inside.
Point your camera at a vehicle and EV Lens names the make, model and generation, classifies its powertrain, and opens the technical story behind it — tuned to the market you’re standing in.
How it works
Three steps from a glance to the full picture
EV Lens pairs a fast on-device detector with a cloud recognizer, so the heavy identification happens the moment you frame the car.
Frame the vehicle
An on-device model locates the car in the viewfinder and hands a clean, cropped frame to recognition — no continuous video leaves your phone.
Make, model, powertrain
Recognition returns the make, model and generation, then tags the powertrain — combustion, hybrid, plug-in hybrid or battery-electric — with a badge you see instantly.
The technical profile
Open specifications tuned to your current market — price, range, consumption, battery or engine detail, component origins, and modelled lifecycle CO₂.
What you get
A vehicle intelligence tool, not just a car scanner
Every recognised vehicle opens into layered, source-aware detail — built for the curious owner and the working professional alike.
Local-market specs
Pricing, power, range, consumption and homologation figures resolved to the country you’re in — WLTP, EPA and CLTC kept distinct, never blended.
Battery & charging
For EVs: battery chemistry and capacity, motor and inverter layout, and charging behaviour — the parts that actually decide how a car lives with you.
Engine & hybrid systems
For combustion and hybrids: engine code, displacement, aspiration, hybrid topology and electric-motor detail, with power and torque figures.
Component origins
Where the engine, motor, battery and vehicle itself are assembled — each claim carried with its source and a confidence level, not stated as gospel.
Lifecycle CO₂
Compare cumulative lifecycle CO₂e and estimate the distance after which a reference EV comes out ahead — presented as a model, with its range and assumptions.
Garage & Top 3
Save vehicles to your Garage, compare them side by side, and get a personalised Top 3 recommendation tuned to what you actually care about.
Recognition taxonomy
Every car, placed on the powertrain map
EV Lens started with electric vehicles and now reads the whole passenger-car landscape. The moment a vehicle is recognised, it’s tagged — so you know what you’re looking at before you read a single number.
Combustion · Hybrid · Plug-in hybrid · Battery-electric — plus fuel-cell and unknown handled gracefully.
Price
Completely free.
Every EV Lens feature — camera identification, powertrain classification, full battery and charging depth, component origins with evidence — is free for everyone in this version. No account, no subscription, no in-app purchases.
Built to respect you
Your camera stays yours
EV Lens processes live frames on your device and only sends a selected, cropped vehicle image for recognition — never a continuous video feed. Location is used while in use to resolve your market, and the app works with your country code, not raw coordinates. Read the full Privacy Policy.
Now live
Point. Identify. Know.
EV Lens is live on the App Store. Download it, point your camera at any car, and see what’s really inside — identification, battery, range, charging and component origins, all source-backed.
