Built for the fleet
going electric.
Battery state of charge, range alerts, charging history, and TCO analytics — pulled straight off the vehicle CAN bus and tracked alongside the rest of your fleet on ACM Destiny.
The Challenge
EV Fleets Need Specialised Management
Standard fleet tracking tools were built for combustion engines. EV fleets have fundamentally different operational needs — and blind spots that cost real money.
Battery Degradation
EV batteries lose capacity over time and charge cycles. Without health monitoring, fleet managers don't know when a vehicle's real-world range has dropped below operational requirements.
Range Anxiety & Stranded Vehicles
Drivers unfamiliar with EV range behaviour underestimate consumption, particularly in hot weather or with heavy loads. Stranded vehicles cause mission failures and costly towing.
TCO Complexity
Proving the business case for EV fleet adoption requires accurate total cost of ownership data — electricity costs, charging infrastructure, battery replacement projections, and carbon savings.
Our Solution
Built for the EV Transition
OBD-II and CAN bus integration gives ACM Track native access to battery, charging, and drivetrain data from your EV fleet.
CAN Compatibility
The ACM EV Tracker reads CAN data from 100+ supported EV models — covering most BEVs and plug-in hybrids on the South African market. Different OEMs expose different parameters, so we confirm your specific model and what data it makes available before fitment.
Battery Health Monitoring
- State of Charge (SoC) tracked in real time
- State of Health (SoH) degradation trend per vehicle
- Charge cycle count and depth tracking
- Battery replacement forecast based on usage patterns
Charging Station Integration
- Log all charge sessions: location, duration, kWh added
- Alert when vehicles fail to charge overnight
- Identify underutilised and overloaded chargers
- Cost per charge session tracking
TCO & Cost Analytics
- Electricity cost per km vs diesel equivalent
- Total fleet energy spend dashboard
- Insurance, servicing, and depreciation tracking
- ROI calculator comparing EV vs ICE in your fleet
Carbon Footprint Reporting
- CO₂ saved per km vs petrol/diesel equivalent
- Monthly sustainability report for ESG disclosure
- Fleet electrification progress scorecard
- Export to PDF/CSV for board or investor reporting
Live Telemetry
LiveNot a mockup. A real EV
we track today.
Snapshot from ACM Destiny showing live data from an actively deployed customer EV running in Mpumalanga — battery state, voltages, charging throughput, and trip history pulled straight off the vehicle CAN bus.
Live snapshot from one of ACM Track's own EV deployments — same hardware, same dashboard, same data your fleet would feed into.
Hardware
The EV Stack
A purpose-built tracker with a built-in CAN data processor — and the option to layer in cameras for driver behaviour and incident evidence.
EV Telematics
ACM EV Tracker
4G LTE Cat 1 · Dual CAN · 100+ EV models
Compact 2-in-1 unit — GPS tracker with an integrated CAN bus data processor. Reads state of charge, charging status, battery voltage, and kWh data straight from the vehicle without an external CAN adapter. Compatible with most BEVs and plug-in hybrids on the SA market — we confirm your specific model before fitment.
Optional Camera
ACM AI Dashcam
Forward road · In-cab driver-facing
Driver behaviour is the single biggest variable in real-world EV range. The AI dashcam flags fatigue, harsh acceleration, and unsafe road events — and gives you 30 seconds of footage either side of every incident for insurance claims.

Case Study
RepresentativeA diesel-to-EV transition that paid back in year one — with range-related breakdowns dropping to zero.
A 22-vehicle SA logistics operator converting from diesel to electric over 18 months had two pressing problems: proving the TCO case to a sceptical board, and coordinating charge scheduling across three depots. After fitting ACM EV Trackers across the fleet, charging events and battery state-of-charge data flowed straight into ACM Destiny — turning the charging spreadsheet into a live dashboard and giving the board the cost- per-km numbers they needed.
Range-related breakdowns dropped to zero within the first quarter post-deployment
Battery state-of-charge monitoring flagged 2 vehicles with degraded packs before they stranded a driver
Charging-event logs replaced the manual depot spreadsheet — saving the ops team several hours a week
* Representative scenario based on typical SA EV-conversion deployments and industry-benchmark outcomes. Actual results vary by vehicle make, route profile, depot charging tariff, and diesel baseline. Named customer references available on request.
