OttoTrail is an EV trip logger built for the Tata Punch.ev. It reads the car over an OBD adapter, turns the gaps between snapshots into drive and charge legs priced at the real cost of the energy in the battery, and scores the health of the battery pack.

Features
๐ Reads the Car over OBD
OttoTrail talks to cheap ELM327 adapters over Bluetooth Classic or BLE. The Punch.ev's standard OBD responder only answers with zeros, so the app queries Tata's own battery and vehicle modules over UDS for state of charge, battery health, pack temperature, odometer, voltage, current and cell readings.

๐ฃ๏ธ Trips, Legs and Real Costs
Each snapshot records the car's charge and odometer. The gaps between snapshots become drive and charge legs, each priced at the average cost of the energy in the battery, and trips group legs together. Insights sums it all up.

๐ Battery Health Score
The Battery tab scores the pack from 0 to 100 using battery health, cell balance, temperature and charging habits, and explains in plain sentences what the numbers mean.

๐ก๏ธ Read-only by Design
Only reads ever reach the car. A command policy blocks clearing codes, writes, resets and session changes, because switching the battery module into an extended session has been found to cut regenerative braking on the road.
๐๏ธ Recordings and an Emulated Trip
Every connection can be recorded as JSON Lines and decoded again later, so new signals can be tested against an old drive without the car. A built-in emulator replays the real car's answers, including a full Pune to Vadodara trip with charging stops.
