How can AI help EV drivers to reduce range anxiety?

How can AI help EV drivers to reduce range anxiety?

MOVE spoke recently with the CEO of Spark EV, Justin Ott, about how their AI-based range prediction software for electric vehicles helps to build driver trust and enables them to overcome the worry that driver’s EVs will run out of battery power mid-trip.

Spark EV’s software delivers more accurate, personalised intelligent range predictions to EV drivers, increasing trust that they’ll get to their destination. The predictions are based on live vehicle, driver, routing and atmospheric data. Spark helps drivers go further between charges while their unique machine learning algorithm constantly learns and improves predictions after each journey.

Watch our chat with Justin to learn how Spark utilises AI to generate these predictions and how it is impacting the way we drive electric vehicles.
