How much does it cost to develop an automotive app?
The cost of automotive app development depends on the project’s scope, features, and integrations. A basic MVP may start around $40,000–$60,000, while complex solutions with telematics, BLE, or backend dashboards can range between $80,000–$100,000+. At Stormotion, we help you define a lean first release and then scale sustainably.
How long does it take to build an automotive or EV app?
Development timelines vary depending on functionality, integrations, and platform requirements. On average, a first product version takes 3–6 months to design, develop, and test. Larger projects – such as full-scale fleet or EV charging platforms – may extend up to 9–12 months with ongoing support after launch.

Pauline Gugelot
Product Owner @ Milence
"Stormotion has really delivered on their promises. They’ve been very transparent about their progress, flexible in reacting to changes, and solution-focused in overcoming challenges. If they didn’t know something, they would find out, which gave us great confidence in their ability to go the extra mile."
Case studyClaudio Tesei
Head of Cloud Infrastructure @ Atlante
"We originally got in touch with Stormotion from our original app developer. And very soon we found real value in choosing Stormotion, because they previously had real valuable experience on the field – digital apps working in the realm of EV charging. So, it was really a no-brainer for us to to go with them."
Case studyTino Marx
CTO @ CheckMyBus
"I highly recommend Stormotion as a service provider for app development. They're young, flexible, dynamic, creative and very fast. The cost of planning and implementation is also reasonable. As they use "pay as you go", have a good plan first – then the result also will be satisfactory."
Case studyJakob Hals
Director of Product Technology @ Norsk Lithium
"Stormotion stood out because of their focus on Bluetooth-connected products. They weren't just app developers, they understood the unique challenges of building mobile app experience for hardware products. Their collaborative approach, technical expertise, and ability to quickly grasp the vision of the North Guardian app made it clear that they were the right fit."
Case studyTodd Gilligan
Innovation Lead @ Force USA
"I had meetings with 30 different agencies and the team at Stormotion gave me the most confidence to go forward. With them you feel like you've got a kind, knowledgable & conscientious team behind you. So I was 100% sure that they're going to be able to deliver our project!"
Case studySteve Knight
Founder @ Art of Comms
"If you're thinking of going to Stormotion, you're going to have a very easy team to talk to, to communicate with, to understand what you want to do. They will tell you if you're barking up the wrong tree and are going to waste your time and money. I'd say "give it a go!" and I thoroughly recommend Stormotion."
Case studyPietro Saccomani
Founder @ MobiLoud
"The Stormotion team quickly became our team for everything Native app-related. It would be hard to name all the things that we built over the many years we worked together, but overall, I think we had a good partner who was able to adapt the way we worked, and the way they worked. So that we could ultimately build a product that had the quality that we wanted and with the speed that we wanted."
Case studyMax Sheidlock
Product Manager @ Userlutions
"Given a tough budget and a lack of knowledge in our own engineering team, we quickly came to Stormotion. We had already worked together on previous projects, and I knew that, based on React Native, we could have one engineer responsible for it. That was just amazing because I could really focus on our customer side, knowing that the mobile application for the testers was in very good hands."
Case studySzymon Sołtysiak
Head of Engineering @ Vermietet.de (ImmoScout24)
"Trust Stormotion. Work with them on your road map, on your technical debt. Also, expect feedback because the team is eager to do this. It's what I value and, I think, many startups value."
Case studyGregor Herdmann
Founder & Co-CEO @ PaketConcierge
"Working with Stormotion was a blast! The Project Managers, and especially Alex, are always there for you when you need them to go the extra mile. And it's very easy to communicate with them. Whether it's something urgent or whether it's a bigger task, like building the structure of the architecture, I always felt like I was treated very well. Stormotion delivered a great app experience from day one."
