Tesla Model X Vehicle Data API: Signals & Model Years

DIMO gives developers API access to Tesla Model X vehicle data. Model years 2016 and newer connect through the OEM cloud (Tesla). Headline signals include odometer, current charge level and vehicle speed.

DIMO gives developers API access to vehicle-state data for the Tesla Model X through Tesla's cloud connection (oem_cloud), covering model years 2016 and newer. The record lists this coverage as tested, with EV signals such as odometer, charge level, remaining range, tire pressure and coordinates. DIMO is infrastructure for physical AI: real-world vehicle data and APIs that AI agents and models can read and act on. Vehicle owners consent to and control sharing, so builders get data with clear provenance. The record lists no DIMO device connection for this model.

Build it

Query the latest Tesla Model X signals with the DIMO TypeScript SDK. The vehicle owner must first share access with your app through DIMO Connect.

import { DIMO } from '@dimo-network/data-sdk';

const dimo = new DIMO('Production');
const tokenId = Number(process.env.DIMO_TOKEN_ID); // from DIMO Connect

const developerJwt = await dimo.auth.getDeveloperJwt({
  client_id: process.env.DIMO_CLIENT_ID,
  domain: process.env.DIMO_REDIRECT_URI,
  private_key: process.env.DIMO_API_KEY,
});
const vehicleJwt = await dimo.tokenexchange.getVehicleJwt({
  ...developerJwt,
  tokenId,
});

// Latest Tesla Model X signals
const data = await dimo.telemetry.query({
  ...vehicleJwt,
  query: `
    query {
      signalsLatest(tokenId: ${tokenId}) {
      powertrainTransmissionTravelledDistance {
        value
        timestamp
      }
      powertrainTractionBatteryStateOfChargeCurrent {
        value
        timestamp
      }
      speed {
        value
        timestamp
      }
      }
    }`,
});
console.log(JSON.stringify(data, null, 2));

FAQ

How do I verify Tesla Model X mileage?

Tesla's cloud connection provides the odometer signal (powertrainTransmissionTravelledDistance, in km) for the Model X. To get verifiable proof of it, call the Attestation API's odometer-statement endpoint with a Vehicle JWT, then retrieve the resulting rawVC through the Telemetry API.

How do I detect recharging on a Tesla Model X?

Tesla's cloud connection lists the recharge event for the Model X. Query the Telemetry API segments resource with the recharge detection mechanism, which uses charging signals and state of charge, or create a webhook in the Vehicle Triggers API on a signal such as vss.powertrainTractionBatteryChargingIsCharging.

Which Tesla Model X model years work with DIMO?

Tesla Model X model years 2016 and newer connect through the OEM cloud (Tesla). For older vehicles, contact DIMO for additional support.

Do I need hardware to get Tesla Model X data?

No. Every listed Tesla Model X model year connects through the OEM cloud without hardware.
