Aximote turns your car data into clear driving insights. Track trips, understand vehicle data and see how driving behavior affects costs, efficiency and consumption. Built for modern connected vehicles, Aximote works without additional OBD hardware. The Aximote experience combines an In-Car App for real-time feedback while driving with a Mobile App for detailed trip history, cost analysis, driving insights and comparisons after every drive. Whether you drive an electric car, plug-in hybrid, hybrid or combustion vehicle, Aximote helps you understand what really happens on the road. Aximote is especially relevant for drivers of selected models from Volvo, Polestar, Renault, Chevrolet, Cadillac, GMC, Honda, Acura, Nissan, Ford, Lincoln and other supported brands. Availability may vary by model, region and vehicle data access. With Aximote, you can: • Track trips and review your driving history • Understand car costs across charging, fuel and usage • Analyze energy consumption, fuel consumption and efficiency • Monitor charging costs and charging history for electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles • Review driving insights such as eco score, speed score and consistency score • Compare trips and understand what affects range, consumption and costs • Share your car with other drivers while keeping each person's trips and insights separate • Tag trips as business or private • Split and merge trips for a complete and accurate driving history • Connect with friends and join the Aximote Community • Get real-time feedback in the car and deeper analysis on your phone • Use compatible vehicle data without extra OBD hardware JOIN THE AXIMOTE COMMUNITY Aximote is more than personal vehicle analytics. Add friends, share selected trips, achievements and interesting driving data, and join dedicated communities around brands, models and interests, from Polestar, Volvo and Renault drivers to EV enthusiasts. Community rankings and benchmarks for efficiency, driving scores and consumption give your numbers real context, so you can see how you compare with similar vehicles and drivers. SHARED CARS, DRIVER PROFILES AND TRIP CONTROL Sharing a vehicle with family or other drivers? Aximote recognizes and separates trips by driver, so everyone keeps their own driving history and insights. Classify trips as business or private, and use split and merge to fix journeys that were recorded as one trip or in several segments. INVITE FRIENDS, GET REWARDED Use the built-in referral program to invite friends and receive rewards. Aximote is built for drivers who want to understand their car in the same way fitness trackers help people understand their body. Instead of leaving vehicle data hidden in the background, Aximote makes trips, costs, consumption and driving behavior easier to review, compare and share. For EV drivers, Aximote helps make charging costs, energy use and range more transparent. For hybrid and combustion drivers, it helps connect fuel costs, driving style and trip data. Aximote is more than a trip tracker, mileage log or charging log: it is a car data platform and driver community designed to make your vehicle more transparent and every drive more measurable. Understand your car. Track your costs. Join the community. Make every trip smarter with Aximote.
