Google Maps To Launch New Features For EV Drivers

From Nasdaq: 2024-04-18 15:29:17

Google is rolling out an update to Google Maps to help electric vehicle drivers locate nearby charging stations. The new features include real-time information on port availability and charging speed. AI will be used to analyze customer reviews and provide accurate directions, even for chargers in hard-to-reach locations.

Users can give feedback on their charging experiences, which will be used to improve the accuracy of charging locations. AI-generated summaries will help users locate chargers based on plug type and wait times. Detailed directions to charging stations, including navigating through parking lots, will be displayed on Google Maps.

A new EV filter on google.com/travel allows users to find hotels that offer onsite EV charging facilities. The update will first reach vehicles with Google built-in, providing a comprehensive tool for EV drivers to plan their trips efficiently.
