Alpha Feedback - Chevy Spark

[Jason-ABRP]

To verify and improve our models we need your feedback.  There's many ways we could use help if you actually own one:

• Drive a plan and compare it to the actual battery used.
• Drive a plan with the browser active, and update your actual battery percentage in the browser.
• Contribute data via OBD or other methods.

The best way to improve the data is to provide data directly from the car.  Connecting your car not only improves the models, but allows you to follow up directly in the car while driving! We have several ways of doing that, but we need your help to figure out what will work with your car:

• An OBD reader can be used in concert with a custom app like LeafSpy, or a PID list and Torque Pro.
• If your manufacturer has an API to access data from the car we can set up access to that API, like we do for Tesla

If you're familiar with either of these, contact me at jason@abetterrouteplanner.com and I'll help figure out what we need to do to connect your car!

Thanks for providing feedback!

I had to do a trip with my spark. One thing I noticed, consumption is pretty accurate except when elevation changes. I had some light weight stuff in and myself but still let added weight parameter to 0. I don't know if this justify about 4% difference in charge level graph on 300m hills. Official papers has 1029kg. Just to be sure your model has the good weight before I try to calibrate cargo parameter.
