    You can do this already with https://recurrentauto.com at least with showing battery health. It also tracks my state of charge and you can tell that I just got done with a long trip where I used the whole battery 100-10 as opposed to my normal 80-30%

    I’ll value a used car using recurrent more than one without

      Like all BMS track this data. Every EV has a BMS. Most apps let you access this data. It’s up to the EV maker to block this data from EV owners.

      This is a great step in the right direction but doesn’t change the beauty of buying used EVs vs ICE. App on phone and OBD scanner. Don’t need a mechanic inspection.

      Thanks, I’ll check this out.

      E: US only, I’m UK. There’s a waiting list but I’m looking for a local version now. Still a good idea, thanks.
