Set your own battery target percentage, low-thresholdpercentage,battery capacity and unit (km or miles).
How it works:
Let’s say you’ve charged to 90% and need to travel another 70miles.Simply plug in those two numbers and it’ll tell you that atanaverage of 3.7 miles/kwh you should arrive at 5% charge and at4.2miles/kwh you will arrive at 15%.
Simple as this is, it greatly reduces range anxietyandtravel-time-anxiety. All you need to do now is try and keepyouraverage energy-economy above what you need, in order to arriveatyour target battery level. If it dips under you need to slow downabit; if it goes over you can afford to add a little speed. UsingEVRange Target helps you get to know your electricvehicle’scapabilities, simply and practically.
This will work with any electric car that has anenergy-economydisplay (miles per kwh or km per kwh). Even better ifthe vehiclecan display your average energy economy. Help reducerange-anxietyin electric cars such as the BMW i3 and i8, NissanLeaf ande-NV200, Renault Zoe, VW e Golf and e-Up, Kia Soul EV,Tesla ModelS, X and roadster. Hybrids such as Vauxhall Ampera,Chevrolet Volt,and Toyota Prius may also find this useful foroptimizing theirdriving on electrical power.
miles per kwh is the electric equivalent of mpg - i.e. howfaryou can get for the amount of fuel or energy currently inthevehicle.
