July — monsoon & landslide risk on Northeast highways
Monsoon rain on NH27 and hill approaches raises landslide and washout risk. Range drops from humidity, slow convoys, and detours — enable hills & weather adjustment and plan backup stops.
- Enable hills & weather adjustment on EV Grids for climb/descent energy use.
- Charge to a higher % before the climb; regen on descents is helpful but not a full refill.
- Wet roads and slower traffic extend drive time — keep extra buffer SOC.
- Check highway advisories; have a backup charger picked on both sides of risky stretches.
- Landslides and road closures can add hours — do not rely on a single charger in a narrow valley.
- Monitor IMD / state highway alerts; split long NE legs with an overnight hub (e.g. Siliguri).
Suggested planner settings: 32% reserve SOC · 38% search threshold · hills & weather on (includes monsoon adjustment Jun–Sep)

How EV Grids helps
Enter your real Wh/km for hill driving — brochure range understates Meghalaya climbs.
Check gun availability when Google reports live connector counts.
Quick tips
- Charge fully in Guwahati before the ghat.
- Shillong city DC is limited — arrive with buffer SOC.
Frequently asked questions
- Do I need a stop Guwahati to Shillong?
- Often no extra stop if you leave Guwahati at 80–100% SOC, but range drops fast on the climb.
- Should I set Wh/km on EV Grids for this route?
- Yes, if you know your car's average consumption. Vehicle presets pre-fill Wh/km (e.g. Nexon EV Max ~155 Wh/km). Highway driving with AC in Indian heat often uses more than the brochure figure — enter your own Wh/km for tighter SOC estimates and safer stop spacing.
- How do lower-cost and max ₹/kWh filters work?
- Enable Prefer lower-cost stations to rank Tata Power, Statiq, ChargeZone, and other networks by indicative ₹/kWh. Optionally set a max ₹/kWh cap to skip pricier sites when the operator is known. EV Grids still checks you can reach each stop with your reserve SOC — if a cheap station is too far, we suggest a reachable alternative.
