I’ve always been interested in EV’s and currently got to work with a couple of models.  
Just trying to learn quickly (especially the interfacing part - how to communicate with the vehicles)

Hi Sunchaser

First of all, welcome to the forum - we hope you find it helpful and informative.

May I ask what kind of EVs you drive?

We have an E4 and an E6 Polaris GEM  
Wondering if I would get any interesting data out of it by just trying to connect a OBD2 reader I find on ebay/amazon.

Any insights on that ?

Hi Mark,  
Thanks for the reply.  
For it being a popular topic tho, I’m having the hardest time finding anything about it … even on the link you provided (which goes to the general overview of all GEM topics, correct ?)

May be that I do not see everything you are seeing cause of this : “

Thanks again
