DriveQuery turns authorized Tesla vehicle data into trips you can review, mileage records you can use for business, charging costs you can explain and charging plans that follow your utility rate. ## Quick answer: What is DriveQuery for Tesla owners in the US? DriveQuery is a Tesla-specific service for **automatic trip history, business mileage workflows, charging history and cost analysis, and rate-aware smart charging**. The Tesla app remains the primary app for controlling the vehicle. DriveQuery adds longer-term history, reviewable records, export workflows and charging automation built around the car's actual energy need. ## Questions this page answers - Can a Tesla track business mileage without using the phone as the trip sensor? - How can Tesla trips become a tax or reimbursement mileage log? - How much does it cost to charge a Tesla at home? - Can charging move automatically to cheaper utility-rate periods? - Where can I keep Tesla trip and charging history over time?

DriveQuery keeps trip context, mileage review and charging history close enough to answer the practical questions that sit between them. ![DriveQuery overview showing Tesla charging status and driving information](https://drivequery.com/assets/app-overview.webp) **Overview** Vehicle status, charging context and the next decision in one view. ![DriveQuery Tesla trip journal showing routes, mileage and labels](https://drivequery.com/assets/trip-journal.webp) **Trip journal** Completed drives, route context and labels that stay reviewable. ![DriveQuery Tesla charging history showing energy and estimated session cost](https://drivequery.com/assets/charging-history.webp) **Charging history** Energy, place and cost context at session level. Built around US realities ## The date matters for mileage. The rate matters for charging. DriveQuery keeps both attached to the underlying vehicle record instead of asking you to recreate the context later. 2026 business mileage**72.5¢ → 76¢** The IRS business standard mileage rate is 72.5¢/mile for Jan. 1–Jun. 30, 2026 and 76¢/mile from Jul. 1–Dec. 31. Dated trips matter when the rate changes mid-year. **Jan–Jun**72.5¢/mi*July 1***Jul–Dec**76¢/mi [IRS mileage rate 2026 →](https://drivequery.com/us/irs-mileage-rate/) Home charging**kWh × utility rate** Tesla already supports utility rate plans and time-of-use periods in Charge Stats.

Add the workflow around it. ### Vehicle data, not a second GPS device DriveQuery is built around authorized Tesla data. You do not need to install another tracking box just to start building a trip record. ### Automation stops where judgment starts The vehicle can provide trip facts. It cannot know why you visited a customer, whether a drive is deductible or how your company wants it classified. ### History becomes something you can use Review once, keep the correction with the source record and export later instead of fixing a separate spreadsheet every month. **Your Tesla password stays with Tesla.**Third-party access uses Tesla's authorization flow, and data-sharing consent can be managed or revoked through your Tesla Account.[How access works →](https://drivequery.com/us/faq/#privacy) How it works ## Drive normally. Review the exceptions. The aim is not to make you manage more data. It is to make the recurring admin smaller each week. 1 ### Connect your Tesla Authorize the data DriveQuery needs through Tesla's account flow. 2 ### Let the vehicle capture the facts Trips, mileage context and charging events build the underlying timeline. 3 ### Review what needs judgment Confirm labels, business purpose and anything ambiguous instead of letting software guess. 4 ### Use the record Export mileage, analyze charging cost or let Smart plan charging around cheaper eligible rate periods. Start with the question you have today ## Useful before you even connect the car.
