About Us
EV Power, proudly NZ-owned, aims to make EV charging affordable and accessible. As the parent brand of OEM Audio, we focus on providing high-quality, safe products without barriers to EV adoption. Our products are designed for efficiency, sustainability, and eco-consciousness, ensuring a cleaner, greener future. We strive to stay ahead by embracing innovation and technology, offering products that help reduce emissions, improve air quality, and promote environmental responsibility.
Born in New Zealand, we’re EV Power, but you might also recognize our products under the name OEM Audio.
Originally, all OEM Audio Ltd products were branded together. However, as our Lumina Audio aftermarket stereo range and EV charging products expanded, each needed its own identity, leading to the creation of the EV Power brand.
We still include the OEM Audio logo on our products because many of our customers are familiar with it and recognize the distinctive black and red design.
We firmly believe that Electric Vehicle charging products should be priced affordably.
Our mission is to inspire more people to switch to electric vehicles. We believe that EV charging products should be affordably priced, so when you decide to purchase an EV, there are no barriers related to quality, cost, or safety.
One of the main reasons people are choosing EVs is their remarkable efficiency. Since electricity directly powers the vehicle, more energy is used for propulsion. With fewer moving parts, there’s less energy wasted through friction. Additionally, EVs don’t idle like traditional vehicles, avoiding unnecessary energy consumption while stationary. Charging your EV with solar power further boosts its efficiency.
