IONIQ Telemetry

Live 800V battery data for E-GMP electric cars — Hyundai IONIQ 5 and 6, Kia EV6 and EV9, Genesis GV60 — read straight off the pack over a Bluetooth OBD-II adapter. True BMS state of charge, coulomb-counted state of health, cell delta in millivolts, and per-module temperatures, plus automatic trip logging, a DC fast-charge monitor, and a solver that plans charging stops around the battery you actually have. Native Kotlin on Android with Android Auto, native Swift on iOS with CarPlay.
