Navigation route with charging stops

[bZ4X.pnw]

Does anyone know how to get Apple Maps or the Toyota navigation to show charging recommendations and charging locations on a route? I have searched and found some answers, on being in Apple Support Community, about setting up Apple Maps but I don't see the options described in the posts. The posts are not bZ4X specific.

Toyota nav is pretty unreliable. I recommend using ABRP or Chargemap to locate charging locations.

I use ABRP + PlugShare and it works like it is from there.

This is what I got. Not sure how reliable it is.

You can use the Toyota app to send directions to your vehicle's navigation system:

1. Open the Toyota app and tap Find stations
2. Select a location or let the app find your current location
3. Choose a charging station from the list
4. Tap Send to Car to send directions to your vehicle's navigation system

I also use ABRP and PlugShare to plan my routes, and they work like a charm. ABRP offers detailed, accurate route planning for electric vehicles, while PlugShare helps me find reliable charging stations along the way. Together, they make long trips much more conveneint and stress-free. Give them a try!

Try this. You gotta set up your car in the Maps app on your iPhone. The key is making sure your car is compatible with EV routing in the first place. Usually, that means linking your car to Apple Maps through the car manufacturer's app. Just think of it as giving Maps permission to peek at your car's battery level and range. Once that's set up, Maps can figure out the best route, taking into account how much juice you have and where the chargers are, especially if you've got a preferred charging network. I hope that helps. Good luck!
