TRIP HISTORY · TELEMETRY · BYD
Every trip in your BYD,
in full detail.
DashArc records every drive in your BYD and builds a trip history on your phone and on the head unit: where you went, how long it took, top speed and how much energy and fuel the car actually used.
On plug-in hybrids, consumption is split into kWh and liters, with the combined average.
Live, the full telemetry shows over 100 car data points on your phone.
Each trip at a glance
- Mini route map, start and end.
- Distance, duration and top speed.
- Energy (kWh) and fuel (liters) actually used.
- A button to open the dashcam recordings from that drive.
The detail view: drag the car along the route
Open a trip and drag the car along the route to see the telemetry at that moment. The charts follow the car: speed, battery and fuel consumption, route slope in a side view and power in kW and hp. The dashcam video opens right at the chosen moment.
You decide what is recorded
The Record trips switch is on by default and applies to both the car and the portal. You can delete one trip or several at once.
