According to a Redditor, the car has DevIOTA’s full node software Hercules running using a raspberry pi. The intention is to connect the node to the car in order for the data to be stored securely on the tangle.

It is important to mention that the first charging station in the world has been released by ElaadNL. This allows users to charge and pay using IOTA in a machine-to-machine manner.

That means that a public area of the Netherlands will have a charging island, two charging lanterns, a fast charger, and a battery. At the moment, and according to ElaadNL, the charging station does not need a communication protocol or back office to operate. It works in a completely autonomous way.

Alisa Maas, Head of Mobility at IOTA Foundation commented on the matter:

“IOTA is thrilled to see ElaadNL take their IOTA smart charging station development to the next level. This solution demystifies IOTA’s potential to become the backbone for the Machine Economy. Thanks to ElaadNL’s cutting-edge innovation, seamless e-mobility is taking one big leap forward and we look forward to sharing this achievement with the rest of our growing ecosystem, at the crossroads of mobility, energy, and smart cities sectors.”
