Log a trip

Copy the numbers from your car's trip computer once you've parked. The trip computer's kWh/100 km (or L/100 km on a hybrid) is far more accurate than battery %, because 1% on a 42.7 kWh battery is already about 0.43 kWh.

Log only once you've stopped.

Using a phone while driving is against the law. Snap the trip screen at your stop and fill this in later.

I agree that TripProof may use this trip anonymously: car, distance, energy or fuel use, speed, temperature and the towns. Never my name, number or exact addresses. I can withdraw this at any time.

What Chery Q drivers report

Plan a trip Beta

Charge stops, charge times and arrival battery for your car, speed and weather. It gets sharper as drivers log trips and report chargers.

Plan with exact addresses and the real road

Type your address, farm or business and pick it from the list. TripProof finds the road distance and the hills itself, and sends you past chargers that are actually on your way.

Open the trip planner

This preview can't look up roads. On the TripProof website the planner finds the distance for you. Here, type the road distance yourself if you know it.

Tell us what happened (after you're safe)

TripProof doesn't run a rescue service yet. Every report shows where help is needed, so we know where to start one and where chargers are missing.
