While electric cars present its driver with an assortment of unique and convenient offerings, having to carefully plan each road trip stop to align with an electric charging station, isn't one of them, which is why Tesla's newly launched 'Road Map Tool' serves as such an innovative resource.
Using this online platform is incredibly simple as drivers simply input their car's model and their starting point and end destination. The tool will then create a driving route which outlines all of the charging stations en route. In addition to the small icons indicating a charging station, this tool will inform the driver of where the most ideal stops would take place and how long each stop should be.
