Amazon offers the Automatic: Connected Card Adapter for $69.99 shipped. Also available at B&H. That’s good for $30 off the original list price and the regular going rate. Today’s deal is the lowest price Amazon has ever sold it for since it was released.

Hook Dad up with a simple and full featured diagnostic kit this Father’s Day. Automatic ditches the old school LCD display in favor of iOS and Android connectivity. The free app provides a plethora of data including travel logs, error messages, efficiency and more. You can even pair it with other third-party products like Amazon Echo and Apple Watch for additional functionality. Automatic is compatible with “just about any car with a OBD-II port”. Head over to this guide for additional information. Rated 3.5/5 stars from 327 Amazon customers. Check out more coverage in our review of the previous generation model.

The Automatic adapter plugs into just about any car to unlock the data hidden in your car’s onboard computer. The free mobile app (for iPhone and Android phones) pairs with the adapter via Bluetooth to diagnose engine problems, display trip logs and mileage, and even call for help in a crash. Automatic comes with a free app for iPhone and Android phones that pairs with the car adapter when you drive to provide many useful features like diagnosing the check engine light, improve your driving with real-time feedback, remembering where you parked, and even free emergency crash response. Drive for work? Automatic tracks your mileage effortlessly and accurately so you can expense it with popular services like Concur, Expensify, Xero, and others.
