BMW i3
Integrate your AutoPi with BMW i3 and get extended information about your vehicle.
Insightful Vehicle data
Extend the features of your BMW i3
With the help of AutoPi, you will be capable of gathering vehicle data easier than ever before. Replacing the battery is rather expensive, which can be prevented with extended data from AutoPi.
Imagine being able to monitor speed, range, speed over time, range over time, state of charge and more. Tracking these will provide you with advanced information about your BMW i3 and potentially detect some issues beforehand.
Use the AutoPi cloud to build extended features based on your data or integrate the data to third party systems or app.

Technical implementation
BMW i3 OBD-II (CAN bus) communication
The BMW i3 uses PIDs to communicate on the CAN bus (which is accessible through the OBD-II port).
This means that to get information about the vehicle, like its current speed or the range left (how much distance the vehicle can cover with the current battery charge) a PID request needs to be send through the OBD-II port and the respective ECU (electronic control unit) will return the response back to the sender.
The BMW i3 uses the ISO 15765-4 CAN bus protocol. Additionally, it uses an 11-bit header and communicates over a 500000 baudrate.
