In this paper we present V-tracer, a vehicular trace generator aimed at generating realistic data about mobility of vehicles, as well as their daily operation and wear. The objectives of our approach are two: first, gathering real traces obtained by in-vehicle on-board units (OBUs), and second, as the first target is hard to achieve, generating synthetic data. The final goal will be getting all the information that would be very useful to infer and predict vehicle failures. The traces provided by our generator may be used to perform the predictive maintenance of vehicles in the near future.
