The EV Trip Optimizer for Tesla is an application created to help you optimize your long-range travel with the Tesla Model S, Model X and Model 3 cars. The application helps you plan your trip by cataloging your starting and destination points, as well as any required stops (waypoints) you identify along the way. The application is available for both Apple and Android mobile devices and is free.
The application takes into account your car's characteristics such as model, battery, charger, wheels, motors and tires along with your driving style. During planning the application collects en-route weather, determines elevation gains/losses, uses wind speeds, temperatures, speed, charging capabilities and your state of charges to help you discover the optimal trip with the least amount of total time expended.
You can save your trips* to be used over and over again, compare trips to each other using a variety of provided charts and graphs.
Standard (Free) Features Include:
• Optimized routing based on time
• Map based planning
• Automatic charger allocation and charging times
• Add stopover and charging waypoints of your own
• List of Tesla Superchargers to pick from
• Automatic weather forecasts for route
• Weather energy calculation (temperature, wind, road conditions and precipitation)
• Dual cabin conditioning (Model X)
• Rolling resistance energy losses
• Elevation energy gains and losses
• Supports Model S, X and 3

• Automatic location detection (can be turned off) for trip origin
• Help on each panel and feature
• Graph energy (SOC) for the trip by distance
• Chart average energy consumption details by leg
• User adjustable power factor for different energy consumption models
• User tailorable start of trip SOC
• Adjust the reserve (minimum destination arrival) SOC
• User tailorable payload (weight of passengers and cargo)
• List the trip waypoints and move the map to each location
• Review the entire trip through a detailed planning briefing
• See and use non-Tesla chargers en-route (USA Only)
• Create custom charging waypoints
• Share trips with other EVTO 4 Tesla users
* Planning more than one trip at a time requires a small yearly subscription fee. There is a 30 day free trial for this feature.
