Note on Hybrid and Electric Vehicles
Due to the significant powertrain differences of hybrid and electric cars and trucks as compared to traditional gas or diesel vehicles, thisThinkware cable is not likely to be 100% compatible with hybrid and full electric vehicles, therefore we do not recommend purchasing this cable for those types of vehicles (e.g. Chevy Volt, Tesla Model 3, Toyota Prius, etc). Should you wish to unlock Parking Mode functionality for Thinkware on an electric or hybrid car or truck, please install the dash cam using aThinkware Direct-Wire Cableinstead (sold separately)
