Base your strategy on what EV drivers need

Low utilization? Missed ROI? If you're not sure you're making the right calls for your charging network — it's time to find out.

If you don’t know how drivers find your sites, what they care about, or why they choose one location over another — you're flying blind. And that leads to missed revenue, low-traffic stations, and wasted investments in the wrong features.

We help Charge Point Operators (CPOs) get real, on-the-ground feedback from EV drivers through in-depth surveys and interviews. Our research reveals what truly matters — so you can make faster, smarter decisions that drive usage, satisfaction, and growth.

Make your next move with confidence — before your competitors do.

Case: On-site Research for Allego

As one of the top three Charge Point Operators in Europe, Allego partnered with Nexxt Industry to conduct on-site surveys across five of its key markets. The goal: to understand why EV drivers choose Allego charging stations over competing networks.

What we did
We mapped the full EV driver journey and defined the research scope around three critical moments: planning a charge, locating a charging station, and making the final charging decision. For each step, we developed targeted research questions tailored to the local context in each market.

On-site interviews
Our interview teams visited both Allego and competitor charging sites across the five countries. We conducted over 200 driver interviews per country, providing a robust foundation for in-depth analysis.

Analysis & reporting
Once the data was collected, we analyzed driver behavior and preferences across all markets. The findings were presented in a structured report, complete with actionable recommendations from our senior consultants.

The outcome
The insights helped Allego sharpen its strategic focus and optimize its rollout plans — aligning more closely with the real needs and preferences of EV drivers across Europe.

No extra work for you—just clear, actionable insights. Here's how it works:

We start by aligning with you on the key research questions. Then our team takes over — from desk research to organizing on-site interviews with EV drivers.

Once the research is complete, we present the findings to your team, answer any follow-up questions, and deliver a clear, structured report with practical recommendations.

No more guesswork — know exactly what your customers need.

Our research helps CPOs align with the needs of EV drivers — informing decisions across marketing, site planning, and technology investments. We test which features and innovations truly matter to drivers, so you can prioritize what delivers real value.

Turnaround & budget

High-impact insights, delivered on time — without adding work to your plate. On-site research projects start at just €15,000 for one country or region, with results ready in as little as 2 months.

Want to cover more regions? We scale the research to fit — most multi-region projects wrap up in around 3 months, tailored to your needs.

We manage the entire process from start to finish, so you can focus on making smart, data-driven decisions.
