May — heat on ghat sections
Hot weather plus elevation changes eat range faster than brochure figures. Use the seasonal planner preset below for safer stop spacing.
- AC load and hot battery packs reduce real range — add 5% reserve SOC in May–June.
- Plan DC stops earlier than winter; verify live charger status before you leave each city.
- 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.
Suggested planner settings: 30% reserve SOC · 35% search threshold · hills & weather on (includes monsoon adjustment Jun–Sep)
