Telematics “almost essential” for EV fleet adoption

It’s a key element in ensuring that the best option is employed at the best time in terms of convenience and range with the aim of minimising charging downtime. For example, many electric van operators are timing charging to coincide with driver’s breaks, using telematics to confirm that employees are rapid charging to 80% and not lingering to trickle charge to 100%. This is seen as the most productive balance of work availability against charging time.
