Abstract
An example operation includes one or more of obtaining a destination of a vehicle, determining an amount of traffic in an area proximate a route to the destination within a time frame, determining a best time to leave in the time frame and a worst time to leave in the time frame, where the best time to leave provides a minimum traffic in the area and the worst time to leave provides a maximum traffic in the area, and determining one or more of a degradation of a battery of the vehicle and an energy usage of the vehicle for one or more of the best time to leave and the worst time to leave.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- obtaining a destination of a vehicle;
- determining an amount of traffic in an area proximate a route to the destination within a time frame;
- determining a best time to leave in the time frame and a worst time to leave in the time frame, wherein the best time to leave provides a minimum traffic in the area and the worst time to leave provides a maximum traffic in the area;
- and
- determining one or more of a degradation of a battery of the vehicle and an energy usage of the vehicle for one or more of the best time to leave and the worst time to leave.
A system, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory, coupled to the processor, comprising instructions that when executed by the processor are configured to:
- obtain a destination of a vehicle;
- determine an amount of traffic in an area proximate a route to the destination within a time frame;
- determine a best time to leave in the time frame and a worst time to leave in the time frame, wherein the best time to leave provides a minimum traffic in the area and the worst time to leave provides a maximum traffic in the area;
- and
- determine one or more of a degradation of a battery of the vehicle and an energy usage of the vehicle for one or more of the best time to leave and the worst time to leave.
A computer readable storage medium comprising instructions, that when read by a processor, cause the processor to perform:
- obtaining a destination of a vehicle;
- determining an amount of traffic in an area proximate a route to the destination within a time frame;
- determining a best time to leave in the time frame and a worst time to leave in the time frame, wherein the best time to leave provides a minimum traffic in the area and the worst time to leave provides a maximum traffic in the area;
- and
- determining one or more of a degradation of a battery of the vehicle and an energy usage of the vehicle for one or more of the best time to leave and the worst time to leave.
