Electric vehicle functions with Google Maps

Updated 2021-10-04

Some functions in Maps are unique for electric vehicles. Here are some of these, along with brief explanations.

The functions listed are only examples. For up-to-date information on which functions are available and how they work, go to g.co/mapsincar.

The functions that relate to battery level are based on historic use of the vehicle and can be influenced by factors such as speed, driving style and use of electrical equipment.

Filter by charging stations

By default, the map only shows compatible charging stations. It is also possible to add other types of charging stations, for example after acquiring an adapter that also enables charging at other charging stations.

Battery charge level at arrival

Maps can show the estimated battery level at arrival at a destination.

Estimated minimum charging time

When charging stations are input as waypoints in an itinerary, Maps will indicate the minimum estimated charging time at that charging station to clarify total travel time and ETA1.
