May — pre-monsoon heat advisory
May and June heat across India often adds 10–15% energy use on highways (AC, battery cooling). Bump reserve SOC and search threshold for this route.
- 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.
Suggested planner settings: 25% reserve SOC · 35% search threshold · hills & weather on (includes monsoon adjustment Jun–Sep)
