EV drivers will be able to access these features when connected to Android Auto or via the car’s built-in Google systems.
According to a media report, Google recently rolled out an update beneficial for EV owners.
As per the report, EV drivers using Android Auto or Google’s integrated operating system will stop seeing petrol stations as points of interest on their Google Maps. Instead, EV drivers will be shown charging stations and other information relevant when driving an EV.
Pearl Xu, Google’s spokesperson, stated that some of the features have been available since 2022. He went on to outline some of the EV-specific features available in Google Maps. These features include charging speed filters, real-time charging port availability, a filter to find plug-type chargers, charging stations in search results and even adding charging stops during trips.
