Re: ✅ Chevy Bolt EV + EUV support updates

Thanks @jeff for your work–I've installed the app and it's picking up my Bolt EUV with the LeLink² OBD scanner!
As someone who purchased an Automatic OBD scanner (RIP) in 2013, Sidecar is a welcome return of the quantified car concept.
I currently use ABRP for EV route planning as the Bolt doesn't have anything built-in. If there's any way that Sidecar could connect up to Apple Maps to do the same, that would be amazing! I'm not a developer, and perhaps it requires some entitlement that's only granted to vehicle manufacturers, but these SiriKit intents look interesting: https://developer.apple.com/documentati ... ntresponse.

Thank you @dvdbyd! Glad you're enjoying the app I've got turn-by-turn directions on the backlog and am planning on adding it to Sidecar in the medium term future. I think Sidecar can provide a really cool navigation experience with the combination of historical trip logging + real time vehicle signals

@wrd I've ported the parameters from the EUV to the Bolt EV in SHA: e7f6f9b. Can you update your parameters and confirm they're working on the EV model?

I was charging at home so I’m not surprised it was a constant level for the time period. I’ll keep an eye on it when charging elsewhere.

Photo attached of newest features. Seems to be working great!

Based on your charge logs, it looks like the charge values were mostly always the same value, so I'm not 100% sure if they're correctly correlating to charge speed (which often has some amount of fluctuation). Where you charging on a public charger or at home for the recorded session?

Added two more parameters (SHA: 9ca4f41):

BOLT_HVBAT_CHRG_CNT: How many times you've charged the battery.
BOLT_HVBAT_CHRG_LVL: The current charging level (e.g. DC fast charging vs A/C)

Sidebar: any intentions to add this information to the UI in CarPlay? Would love to be able to view charge rates among battery temperature on the maps overlay.

Definitely. I need to think about the best way to visually represent this information. Usually the charger will show kWh being charged instead of A/V so I'd like to turn this into a single point metric in some way.

Logs emailed to you while charging. Screenshot attached of the data it’s pulling.

Added four more parameters in SHA: f699018:

BOLT_CHARGE_AC_VOLT
BOLT_CHARGE_AC_CURR
BOLT_CHARGE_HV_VOLT
BOLT_CHARGE_HV_CURR

These parameters should, in theory, indicate the current charge speed of the vehicle. @pianoman96 if you're able to open the Battery parameters page while you're charging your car for ₂-5 minutes and then share the logs, that would be super helpful! I can then hopefully use that data to wire the charging information up to the UI properly.

Basic EUV outline now in place; will get the symbol landed and included in the next Sidecar release

Thank you for the photo! Looks like the EUV and the EV have a slightly different lighting setup so I'll make sure to tune the symbols for each model.

You’re on the right track. I believe the 2022-2023 EV and EUV share the same front end, including mind.

Haha ok nevermind, I do need help. It looks like I was looking at the EV trim and not the EUV; it might still be helpful to have a photo of the front of your car to make sure that I'm designing the right icon. I may end up needing to make two, one for the EV and one for the EUV.
