Volkswagen Car-Net is a free lifestyle app by Volkswagen of America Inc. that lets you monitor and control your VW vehicle remotely. With this app, you can lock or unlock your doors, honk and flash your vehicle, check your fuel level, and even start your engine remotely. You can also use Siri to locate your parked car quickly. The app also offers anti-theft alerts, speed alerts, curfew alerts, valet alerts, and boundary alerts. These features make it easy for you to keep tabs on your car even when someone else is driving it.

This app is available on most 2022 VW models and requires a trial or paid subscription. You must enter into the terms of service, and VW Car-Net services require vehicle cellular connectivity and availability of vehicle GPS signal. The app also offers exclusive features to the ID.4 electric vehicle, such as viewing the current battery charge level, selecting temperature settings before getting in the vehicle, and selecting when to stop, start, or how much to charge your vehicle. Standard text and data rates may apply, and always pay careful attention to the road and do not drive while distracted.
