Charging station - distance to the route

Recommended charging stations are sometimes far away from the route. Similar to the route planning for "going electric", it would be very helpful to be able to enter the maximum distance (in km). Otherwise, compliments on the continuous improvement of the app 👍👍

    Hi @Dr. Achim Ding,

    Please provide a link to the plan where this occurs. To do this;

    1. Plan the trip in ABRP

    2. Click/tap: ‘Share plan’

    3. Click/tap: ‘Share ABRP link’

    4. Paste the URL here

    IMPORTANT: Please exclude private addresses and the use of ‘my position’, home, work etc. from the plan you post here publically.

      it’s a general question without any relation to a specific plan.

      When planing a route, recommended charging stations are sometimes quite far away from the suggested route. It would be fine to include an opportunity to limitate the distance in advance.

        It would be very helpful with an example so that we can see how we can improve.

            An example of an ABRP plan where we go off route more than desired by the average user in order to charge.

                Could you provide the link to this plan?

                  Sorry, but the original planning is not reproducible. ABPR suggests other routes when planning again.

                    Ok, if we have no definite example to base the report on I’ll have to close this ticket.

                    As a last clarification, links share plan settings, and this is needed to understand the situation. I’m aware that our planning change depending on what current parameters look like.
