Add Target SoC Option for Manual Charging Stops

When manually adding a charging stop, users can currently set a charging duration (e.g., 2 hours) or a specific departure time. However, there is no option to set a target state of charge (SoC) (e.g., 80% or 100%) as the goal for the charging stop.

This feature would be extremely useful in cases where the charging time is not the priority, but reaching a specific SoC is. For example, during a meal stop or sightseeing, the user may want to ensure that their vehicle charges up to a specific percentage without needing to calculate or adjust the time manually.

Proposed Solution:

  • Add an input field for "Target SoC" in the waypoint options menu when manually adding a charging stop.

  • Allow ABRP to calculate the required charging time based on the target SoC and display it as part of the stop details.

Benefits:

  • Improved flexibility for users when planning stops with uncertain durations.

  • More intuitive manual adjustments to routes, especially for users who prioritize SoC over duration.

    Hi @Abc,

    Actually, this is already supported. Tap the ‘for’ to toggle to ‘till’, and you can set a target SoC instead of a duration.

      Thank you for the clarification! I wasn’t aware of the “for” to “till” toggle option. It was not so obvious. Appreciate the quick response and support!

        Agreed, I do believe it used to have a different appearance before we reworked this component. We’ll review this.
