Tavascan Edge - No sat nav, no problem?

War schon mal da
Hello everyone,

I ordered my Tavascan a week ago!! Delivery time approx. 8 months.

Since I hardly ever used the sat nav in my current Skoda Octavia and only used Google Maps via Android Auto, I decided to order the Tavascan as an "Edge", so without sat nav. Of course, this decision has two direct consequences: no charging planning without sat nav, and no automatic battery preconditioning either...

However, there seem to be alternatives for charging planning, such as A Better Route Planner. The app is said to be able to connect to the car (OBD interface required?) and regularly query the state of charge.
Does anyone have experience with this? Has anyone tested it already?

Thanks in advance,

Thomas
 
@Thomas.tb.bouvier Welcome here with us in the Forum. ;) 🍻 ;)

I would like to ask to understand:
A Human Machine Interface (HMI) is still installed, right?
In my opinion, the navigation system is just an option/app within the HMI.

That means all other functions should still be controllable via the HMI, right?
 
Hi Melfinos,

Yes, that's right, the Edge includes an "infotainment system," but not a "navigation system" like the Endurance and VZ.

I think "charging planning" is the wrong term here. I meant route guidance with charging stops...

So HMI is present, navigation is probably disabled via software. And therefore no route guidance with charging stops either.

But maybe, as mentioned, there is a "workaround." So I would be interested in your experience with it, if anyone has even tried it yet...
 
ok, thanks...

I don't have direct experience with the Tavascan, but ABRP works with an OBD2 dongle.

There are several YouTube videos about setup and experiences. I’m linking one of the videos here.

Maybe it will help you

 
Hallo zusammen,

was mich ein bisschen "nervös" macht, ist, dass auf der ABRP Webseite beim Tavascan (noch?) keine "ABRP OBD" Kompatibilität steht, im Gegensatz zum Mach-E aus dem Video (siehe Screenshots).

Kann auch sein, dass das Fahrzeug noch zu neu ist. Beim Enyaq steht das beim Facelift auch noch nicht...

Das ist richtig, der Tavascan ist deutlich zu neu, als dass hier jeder schon entsprechende Infos bereitstellen kann.

Aber warum sollte der OBD2 und ARBP nicht funktionieren?

Im Zweifel lohnt sich der Selbsttest, sobald du das Fahrzeug hast.
Wenn du den OBD2 Stecker noch nicht hast, dann bestelle ihn erst, wenn du das Fahrzeug hast über Amazon. Dann kannst du den Stecker, sollte es doch nicht funktionieren, ohne größere Probleme retournieren.

History of the Cupra Brand

In January 2018, SEAT S.A. announced the launch of Cupra as an independent brand. Its official presentation took place on 22 February 2018. Before that, Cupra was primarily known as the name used for particularly sporty versions of various SEAT models.

The newly established brand introduced its first model, the Cupra Ateca, in 2018. The Cupra Formentor marked another important milestone: this SUV coupé was the first model developed specifically for Cupra and went on sale in 2020.

The Cupra Born followed in 2021 as the brand's first fully electric production model. The Born is based on the Volkswagen Group's modular electric drive platform and is technically closely related to the VW ID.3.

Electrification of the model range continued to expand. The fully electric SUV coupé Cupra Tavascan joined the line-up, while the Cupra Terramar expanded the SUV range with, among other options, electrified plug-in hybrid powertrains.

With the Cupra Raval, Cupra is adding a significantly more compact vehicle to its electric range. The brand now covers a broad spectrum, from compact electric cars to SUVs and SUV coupés.

Cupra Raval – A Compact Electric Cupra for the City

The Cupra Raval expands the range with a compact electric car designed particularly for everyday urban driving. Technically, the Raval is based on a Volkswagen Group platform developed for compact electric vehicles and is related to other models in the so-called Electric Urban Car Family.

In the Cupra Raval Forum, prospective buyers, customers and drivers discuss orders and delivery times, prices and equipment, range and energy consumption, battery and charging power, software, accessories, as well as potential problems and experiences with the Cupra Raval.

Real-world ownership experiences are particularly valuable for answering questions that technical specifications alone cannot resolve. These include the actual range of the Cupra Raval, energy consumption in summer and winter, charging times, software experiences and choosing the right equipment.
