Find upcoming (specific distance) amenity while driving, with fast charging in order to allow for preconditioning

Feature Requests

"find me a charger with a McDonald's 30 minutes from here on route"

The one big scenario feature I keep missing is:

I'm driving to a location that's a few hours away. My battery is still very full. But I have small kids so I want to find a McDonald's on my route that has a fast charger next to it and that is roughly 30 minutes away from this moment.

I have still to find a way to easily do this.

    Hi @Marco,

    Thanks for the suggestion! This is a great use case.

    The 'amenity search' feature while driving should allow you to do something very similar to what you're describing, but it might not be as specific in terms of distance.

    Unfortunately, we've recently identified an issue with this specific feature and are currently working on a fix that we hope to release soon. This can be tracked in: Amenity search while driving doesn't work in 7.0

      Thanks.

      The distance part is crucial, because otherwise there is no time to precondition the car. So searching for 30-45m from here is very important to ensure a quick charge

    Thank you for adding this as a trackable issue so quickly after it was mentioned on Reddit. Your team is really on it!
