Aampere Lands €4.2 Million to Build Europe’s Leading Used EV Marketplace

The funding round was led by Trind Ventures, an investment firm from Estonia. Vend Marketplaces ASA, the company behind well-known Nordic marketplaces such as FINN.no, Blocket, and Bilbasen, also joined the round as a minority investor.

G-FUND also invested in the company as a new investor. Existing investors, including GIMIC, increased their investments, while several experienced business angels from the automotive industry also participated in the funding round.

“With fresh capital and strong new partners by our side, we’re accelerating our expansion and further building our position in the European market,” said Florian Reister, founder and CEO of Aampere.

“Electromobility is on the rise across Europe – but the secondary market for used EVs is still fragmented and inefficient. Right now, what’s needed is infrastructure for this secondary market. Aampere is building the platform for it – so that used electric cars quickly and reliably find the right buyer across Europe,” Reister added.

“Flo, Maxi and Niko have delivered exceptionally in a short time – with around 4x growth over the past year and a customer experience that keeps getting better for sellers and buyers alike. We’re glad to keep backing Aampere with full conviction,” said Taavi Lepmets, Partner at Trind Ventures.

Founded in 2023 by Reister, Niko Schmidt and Maximilian Rost, Aampere operates a fully digital platform that helps people and businesses buy and sell used electric vehicles (EVs) across Europe.

The company says that although more people are buying electric cars, the used EV market in Europe is still fragmented and inefficient.

Many used electric car sales still depend on manual processes, outdated systems, and separate national marketplaces, making the buying and selling process slower, less transparent, and more complicated.
