Unrealistic Maximum Speed

Questions

If I use Automatic settings when planning a route on the desktop using “automatic settings” the maximum speed defaults to an unrealistically low speed (37 MPH on the M6 from Manchester to Exmouth) I want to retain live SoC facility but input a realistic maximum speed, how can I do that?

    Hi

    The maximum speed it's based on your latest drives and adjusts accordingly so we have a rough estimate, of how fast you drive. You can just click at the blue car in front of the number and then add your own speed.

      Hi Linda, thanks for the speedy response, if enter my own speed at the planning stage will ABRP still use live data for SoC when I actually drive the route or will I need to switch it on again?

      Regards

        The SoC should not be affected when you turn off the blue car for maximum speed. There should still be a blue car in front of the SoC number.
