Advanced Electric Vehicle Trip Planner for Multi-Stop Logistics

At the forefront of sustainable innovation, we develop cutting-edge logistics solutions tailored to the unique needs of commercial electric vehicles (EVs). Our advanced route planning system empowers businesses to optimize routes, seamlessly integrate charging schedules, and enhance overall operational efficiency for electric vehicle fleets.

Business Challenge

With the global push toward sustainability and the widespread adoption of electric vehicles, effective logistics planning has become paramount for commercial EV operations. A leading automotive innovator sought our expertise to develop an advanced trip planning solution that addresses the complexities of multi-stop routing and charging for EVs.

The increasing need for precision and reliability in EV trip planning has made it a critical feature for businesses operating electric fleets. Unlike traditional vehicles, EVs require meticulous charge management, especially for commercial applications where downtime directly impacts profitability.

Our Solution

Leveraging our deep automotive expertise and proficiency in EV routing algorithms, we designed and implemented a powerful EV trip planner that delivers unmatched precision and convenience.

Key Features of the Solution

1. Dynamic Range Mapping

The system integrates seamlessly with vehicle data, providing an accurate, real-time map of the range a vehicle can cover based on its current charge. This ensures fleet operators and drivers can make informed decisions about trip feasibility.

2. Optimized Multi-Stop Routing

Our solution calculates the most efficient routes, incorporating mandatory charging stops into the itinerary. It identifies the closest and fastest charging stations, minimizing detours and reducing downtime.

3. Enhanced Time Management

The planner provides precise estimations of both the arrival time (ETA) at the next destination and the estimated charging duration (ECT), taking into account geographic factors such as elevation changes and detours.

4. Pre-Charge Battery Optimization

To enhance charging efficiency, the system communicates with the vehicle to pre-condition the battery to an optimal temperature before charging.

Business Outcome

Our collaboration has solidified our client’s position as a leading provider of navigation solutions for the global automotive market. Today, we act as strategic partners, actively participating in key decision-making processes and regularly launching new products.

We continue to refine EV trip planning systems, enhancing driver convenience and distinguishing our client’s offerings in the competitive marketplace.

Our solution allows users to:

• Plan stops for recharging during long trips without manually searching for charging stations.
