Thank you for your interest in participating in our Connected Vehicle Field Test (CVFT 5.0). We want to evaluate the implementation of the EU Data Act in the context of connected cars.

  • What car data is made available by vehicle manufacturers under the EU Data Act?
  • How is data made available and provisioned to you?
  • How is data access implemented for third parties?
  • With which data quality is the data provided by the vehicle manufacturers?

For this purpose, CARUSO is looking for volunteers and their vehicles to exercise and evaluate the offering of the vehicle manufacturers in the context of the EU Data Act. CARUSO is looking for a number of representatives per vehicle manufacturer to perform walkthroughs and gather information about the implementation of the EU Data Act and, of course, collect data about your vehicle.You can find more information here.
