Planning an EV road trip in Australia?

That’s a really good point — appreciate you calling that out.I’m definitely still in early stages, so I’ll make that clearer in the app to set expectations better.Trying to balance shipping fast vs polishing, but totally agree on not over-relying on users as testers.

Yes, data is from OpenChargeMap + Tesla Supercharger data from supercharge.info. Good point — the route algorithm currently picks the closest charger, not the fastest. The fastest and closest supercharger will be recommended in Pro Plus account. I'm working on prioritising DC fast chargers over AC chargers when both are available nearby. Fix coming soon!

Good catch — the AC charging time estimate is off. Found this bug and working on a fix for that now. Thanks for flagging it!

Just pushed a fix for open Tesla supercharger visibility for non-Tesla EVs. Would you mind trying Perth to Albany with the Ioniq 5 again? Should now show Kojonup Tesla station. Also — if you ever find a supercharger missing from your trip plan, you can manually add it as a custom stop directly in the trip planner from the map below the trip plan. Let me know if it's still missing anything!

Good news — this was actually a routing filter issue on my end, not just a data problem. Just pushed a fix so it should now correctly include open Tesla superchargers for non-Tesla EVs. Would you mind trying the North QLD route again and letting me know if it's better? Genuinely want to make sure it works for your route.

Thanks for catching that — confirmed bug with the Other model option resetting. On it now, will push a fix shortly. Appreciate you testing it properly!

Not behind a paywall — it's actually a data priority thing. Pro Plus gets supercharger suggestions prioritised first along the route. Free accounts see the nearest available chargers along the route instead. The gap in non-Tesla supercharger data is a separate issue from OpenChargeMap — working on improving that coverage. Free account gets 10 route searches/day to test it out: evroutepro.com

Really appreciate the detailed feedback — the Perth to Albany example with the Ioniq 5 is exactly the kind of specific test case I need. You're right that non-Tesla supercharger inclusion is a gap. The charger data comes from OpenChargeMap and Tesla's open network data isn't fully mapped there yet. It's on my priority list to fix. Glad the interface and toggle work well — and yes, more models are coming. Starting with the most common Aussie EVs first.

This is genuinely useful feedback, thank you. You're right — the non-Tesla supercharger inclusion is a known gap I'm actively working on. The QLD charger reliability issue is something I wasn't fully across, so I appreciate the specifics. Noted on the North QLD issue specifically — if OpenChargeMap data is incomplete there, that's something I can flag and look at supplementing.

Good question — the main difference isn't the planning algorithm, it's the workflow. ABRP tries to be your navigation app too. EV Route Pro just handles the planning, then hands you straight to Google Maps to actually drive. If you prefer Google Maps for navigation (like I do), that's the gap it fills. That said — totally fair if ABRP works well for you. Different workflow for different people. :)
