In the future, the Google Maps navigation function that everyone commonly uses will no longer prioritize the fastest.Possibly instead focus on the most energy efficient routesThis. I don’t know if you are in favor or against if such a function is fully rolled out? But now it seems that Google wants to explore more deeply the “efficiency” part of the navigation function. Continue reading Google Maps energy-saving route planning will let you choose whether to drive an electric car or a fuel car.
Google Maps energy-saving route planning will let you choose whether to drive an electric car or a gas car
Although generally speaking, the difference between the most fuel-efficient or power-saving driving methods for fuel vehicles and electric vehicles will not be too big (just try not to rush in). However, the characteristics are different in certain situations – the biggest difference seems to be at high speed? If you stop and go, most vehicles should consume a lot of energy.
Regarding this situation, it has previously shown that it pays more attention to the “energy-saving” navigation logic. By changing the default navigation route to a fuel-saving/power-saving method, everyone can see Google Maps’s new definition of “efficiency” – it is no longer just about speed, but hopes that the driver can complete the journey in a more energy-saving way within a certain range.
Now, after dismantling the APK through foreign media, it is found that Google Maps seems to be targeting the energy forms used by vehicles, and also hopes to bring more and more detailed functional options.
New! Get fuel-efficient routes tailored to your vehicle’s engine type.
Save more fuel by choosing your engine type
This info helps Maps find the route that will save you the most fuel or energy.
When 9to5Google disassembled the latest beta version of Google Maps v11.39, it was found that in the navigation route function, there was a word that could select “Engine Type”, which is the power mode. According to the description, this navigation path function will be able to target different power sources, including traditional fuel vehicles and new energy vehicles, to save more fuel for driving (well… electric vehicles should save power).
That is to say, although the description of Google Maps is mainly used to estimate the best route for you, in a certain way, the service should also be able to generate more meaningful data for big data through more accurate dynamic attributes, right?
That is to say, according to the information mined by APK, this function may not be limited to fuel vehicles and electric vehicles. In total there will likely be at least petrol, diesel, electric and hybrid options. After setting, the system will find the most energy-saving route for the driver. In addition, this function seems to also provide the ability to quickly change the power mode in the menu – after all, if you use a mobile phone to navigate, it may not be limited to one car.
