Plan fuel and charging stops

It starts from the fuel you say is in the tank, keeps a reserve of a tenth of the tank and fills to full at each stop. For each fill the drive needs it looks at the stretch you can reach and picks the best-value current stop there. When a stretch has no current report it names the nearest station instead, so check the map before you rely on it.

Choose your start, destination and toll preference. EV plans use road distances to check your battery at each stop. Petrol and diesel searches may show a labelled approximate corridor when road routing is unavailable.

Stops are ranked by the reported price for your fill size plus the fuel used driving to the station and back to the route. A slightly dearer station on the route can cost less than a distant low price. Only prices FuelRadar updated in the last 14 days are ranked.

Enter your usable battery, consumption and compatible plugs. The planner checks your reserve between stops and estimates charging time from your vehicle and the listed charger power. Weather, queues and actual charging speed can change the trip.

Open each station before leaving. Check fuel-price update times or charger access and directory dates. Confirm charger operation with its network; the directory does not provide live bays or current tariffs.

FuelRadar uses supported government programs, retailer reports and station reports. Coverage and update frequency vary, so check the time shown for a station before making a detour.

Yes. Run the route with tolls allowed, note the distance and drive time, then switch on Avoid toll roads and run it again. When a road route is available, FuelRadar reports detected toll-road sections but does not calculate the toll fee.

No. Petrol and diesel plans estimate fuel cost. EV plans estimate driving and charging time, not charging cost because current tariffs are not supplied. Toll fees, parking, traffic delays and vehicle wear are not included.

No. Open Charge Map provides listed equipment, power and access conditions, not live bay availability or queues. Check the charging network before travelling and keep a reachable backup in mind.

EV journeys can include up to three waypoints. The petrol and diesel comparison runs between one start and one destination.
