e-Remote Control
e-Remote Control
Check and manage your electric vehicle range remotely and in Real-Time using your smartphone. With MyOpel you can check the charge and range of your vehicle at any time, and if you’re plugged into a charging point, you’re even able to control charging when you’re far away. To offer peace of mind, you can be alerted when the battery is full or the charging is interrupted.
The remote pre-conditioning feature lets you warm or cool the vehicle to an optimal temperature before starting your journey. With your comfort in mind, this feature allows you to maximise range if your vehicle is on charge by taking energy from the source rather than the battery.
This service is supplied free of charge by Opel for the life of the vehicle.

Be in the know about your vehicle's state of charge.
On the welcome page of the MyOpel app, you can see your vehicle's remaining range in Real-Time. You can also check whether you’re plugged in and charging and see confirmation of the charging type (rapid or standard)
Stay in control of your vehicle, even from afar.
Once your Opel is plugged into a charging point, control the charging from your smartphone.
You can start, stop or programme a charge for a time to suit you, allowing you to benefit from any off-peak charging tariffs without going out to your vehicle.
Equally, you can follow the real-time charge speed and the remaining charging time.
In the event of any unplanned interruptions to your charging session, you can be alerted by your MyOpel app. You will also be informed when your vehicle is fully charged.
In specific vehicle models you can also choose to stop the charging at a defined battery level, which reduces the charging time and may improve the battery’s performance and durability.
Enjoy optimum comfort from the moment you step inside your vehicle, regardless of the outside temperature. From your smartphone, pre-heat or pre-cool the cabin of your Opel through the MyOpel app – whether you’re plugged in or not.
If your vehicle is plugged in, your battery's remaining range and state of charge won’t be diminished.
The e-Remote Control service also allows you to plan pre-conditioning slots to suit your schedule, ensuring you can maximise your Opel in all circumstances
