Electric car functions with Google Maps

Updated 05/11/2020

Some functions in Maps are unique to electric cars. Some of them are listed here, with a brief description.

The functions mentioned are only examples. For the latest information on which functions are available as well as how they work, go to g.co/mapsincar.

The functions related to battery level are based on historical use of the car, where influencing factors include, for example, use of electric equipment, speed and driving style.

Filtering on charging stations

By default, the map only displays compatible charging stations. It is also possible to add other charging station types where appropriate after obtaining an adapter, for example, which allows the car to be charged at other charging stations as well.

Battery level on arrival

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

Estimated minimum charging time

When charging stations have been added as intermediate destinations in an itinerary, Maps indicates the estimated minimum charging time at the charging station in question in order to clarify the total travelling time and the ETA1.
