Google is expanding Android Auto to better support electric vehicles (EVs) with support for showing connectors and more.

Over the past few updates to Android Auto, Google has been quietly building out new features tied to EVs. This includes the ability to manually identify your car as an electric vehicle and toggle on EV features within Google Maps on Android Auto. This all appears within Android Auto’s built-in settings menu under a new section titled “EV Settings.”

    I was going to mention this. I do ride personal electric vehicles like an electric unicycle and the immediate response is quite addictive. I’ll make the switch over eventually, but something I also really like about my turbocharged 86 is its light weight and overall steering feel.

      Yeah I don’t blame you. I had a WRX before the Tesla and man that was fun.

      But I also have fun in the Tesla. I haven’t really sent it around a corner like I did with the WRX though yet.
