Frequently asked questions

Lucknow to Varanasi stops?: 0–1 DC stop for most EVs depending on start SOC.
Pilgrimage season traffic?: Add reserve SOC and prefer stations with multiple guns.
Continue to Bihar?: Plan Varanasi → Patna as a new trip segment.
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.
