【Web API】

“Vehicle Data Web API” provided by Toyota ITC

This WebAPI is the interface to get "Vehicle Data" through our server, such as location by GPS, speed, break, doors, wipers, engine, etc.

*1 Only the vehicle data from trial TOYOTA’s cars can get through this WebAPI.

*2 Operation period of API server is until "end of November 2014".

"Toyota Info Technology Center" is verifying the utilization of Big Data from Toyota’s 100,000 vehicles.
