Our range plummeted in yesterday’s cold, and would love detailed data on historic consumption vs mileage (and could then extrapolate eg consumption vs speed) and in ideal world things like aircon energy consumption at different temps and speed.

Is that kept locked away? Or is there a clever way to download data?

You can get an OBD dongle to plug in - and then log the data to your smartphone when you use the car. But at the moment there’s no way to download any data that the car is presumably storing.

That’s a shame. They aren’t up to speed on their app. Opening up data and APIs would allow amazing stuff to be built.

You can check out the Youtube Videos by "id furkan". He uses a Veepeak OBD adapter and using CarScanner and EVNotify (www.evnotify.de)

Sign up to Tronity, it’s currently free for ID. cars: https://app.tronity.io/login

Also has a phone app, a phone widget (on iPhone at least) and an app for Apple Watch too.

Definitely an improvement over the We Connect ID for data reporting.

OK. So tronity needs no OBD dongle? Any idea if it will remain free?

No dongle. You do have to create an account and sign in with your We Connect ID password so the data can be accessed.

Correct, it taps into data which the car sends to VW.

I expect it will revert to a subscription at some point, it's currently free because the data VW allow access to for ID. cars is less than with other vehicles.

ImageYou get a bit but not much with Tronity. It’s useful for tracking charging rates and costs though.

£25 for an OBD dongle gives you a lot more….
