Application Description:
Power Cruise Control: Intelligent Range Management for Electric Commercial Vehicles
Power Cruise Control (PCC) is a smart navigation app designed to eliminate range anxiety for electric commercial vehicles, specifically supporting Fiat e-Ducato (47 kWh and 79 kWh models). Unlike other EV apps, PCC offers real-time vehicle data integration for accurate range predictions.
Key Features:
- Real-time Vehicle Data: Connects directly to your vehicle via a Bluetooth OBDII dongle, accessing crucial information like State of Charge (SoC), State of Health (SoH), speed, power consumption, and more.
- Intuitive Interface: Provides clear, easy-to-understand information via a Heaven-Hell indicator, ensuring confident arrival at your destination. Following PCC's guidance is crucial for optimal range management.
- Sophisticated Route Planning: Considers elevation changes (hills and valleys), planned route, and environmental factors (temperature, A/C/heating use) to calculate precise energy consumption. Regenerative braking during downhill driving is factored into these calculations.
- Charging Station Integration: Identifies nearby and en-route charging stations.
How to Use Power Cruise Control:
- Connect your OBDII adapter.
- Enter your destination.
- Select your preferred energy strategy.
- Follow the Heaven-Hell indicator to reach your destination safely.
PCC simplifies long-distance journeys by maintaining optimal energy usage. The app also offers customizable units (mph/km/h, °C/°F).
Important Information:
- OBDII Adapter: Requires a Bluetooth OBDII adapter. A recommended official adapter is available at https://amzn.eu/f49WbjO. Other adapters may function, but compatibility isn't guaranteed. For users outside of Italian Amazon's shipping area, consider the German Amazon link: https://www.amazon.de/dp/B08PL2F11P/?&language=en_GB
- Licensing: Licensing is VIN-specific, allowing use on multiple Android and/or iOS devices (iOS availability dependent on vehicle model). A single license covers unlimited users for a single vehicle. Dealer licensing options are also available. Existing licenses transfer with used vehicle sales.
- Trial Period: Enjoy a free 30-day trial with full functionality. Following the trial, a yearly subscription of €24 (tax included) is required. Pricing may vary by region. Contact [email protected] for multi-VIN licensing and OBDII adapter bulk purchases.
