With this new release we offer three APIs based on the ACEA rFMS standard: Connect API – Electric, Connect API – ESS Power and Connect API – Diesel

The first version of the connected service Events is being launched in Volvo Connect for vehicles on our new electric architecture. As a fleet owner, you can now use the Events service for all bus models in the same fleet.

Excessive idling leads to unnecessary fuel consumption and engine wear, increasing costs over time. The Idless service will help you keep track, find the anomalies and take the actions needed to reduce the drawbacks caused by unnecessary idling.

Driving Profile is a service based on data collected with a high frequency that lets you drill down in detail to your vehicles’ performance, second by second, over a 24-hour time frame. It can help you detect certain trends and analyze correlations between events. For example, you may notice more harsh acceleration events when the bus is climbing up to high altitude, and you can correlate fault codes to driving patterns like high speed.

A new functionality/tab called "Service Contract" is now in place within Volvo Connect. This functionality/tab is accessible within the Assets section for individual vehicles. It will only be visible in markets that utilize the Trucks Service Agreement (TSA).
