How it Works

This calculator divides your trip into manageable segments based on your vehicle's range and your safety buffers.

First Leg: Uses energy from Start SOC down to Min Arrival SOC.
Stops: We assume you charge back to 80-90% (fast charging sweet spot), but for simplicity, this tool calculates based on having a "full usable chunk" available for subsequent legs (e.g. 10% to 100% or user preference).
