A Better Routeplanner: Trip Planning Tool for Electric Vehicles

A Better Routeplanner is a web-based trip planning tool for electric vehicles. It provides optimized routes and charging station recommendations based on specific EV models, charger types, weather, elevation, and other factors for more accurate range and charging time estimates.

What is A Better Routeplanner?

A Better Routeplanner is a web and mobile application designed specifically for trip planning in electric vehicles. It goes beyond traditional mapping tools by factoring in specific EV attributes like battery capacity, energy consumption, charger types, elevation changes, current weather, and more to provide highly accurate range and charging time estimates.

The app allows users to enter their EV make and model or configure custom EV parameters. They can then map out a route with waypoints, and A Better Routeplanner will suggest optimal Supercharger, CCS/CHAdeMO, and Type 2 AC charging stops along the way based on the vehicle’s specs and needs. It accounts for uphill and downhill elevation changes as well as headwinds and tailwinds to provide more precision.

Key features include:

• Detailed range estimates and charge time calculations for bespoke EVs
• Modeling of uphill/downhill impacts on energy consumption
• Incorporation of real-time weather along trip routes
• Filtering of charging stations by plug type, power output, and special access
• Exporting of road trip details to calendar services or the in-car navigation
• Third-party app integration via API

With its advanced EV routing capabilities optimized for individual vehicles, A Better Routeplanner stands out among trip planning tools as an indispensable resource for electric vehicle road travel.
