Automobile battery remote charging and maintenance system

A vehicle battery charging system comprising:

• a vehicle having an internal combustion engine, a battery charged by operation of the internal combustion engine, and a telematics system, the telematics system comprising:
• a controller;
• a wireless communication transceiver in signal communication with the controller;
• and
• at least one monitoring device in signal communication with the controller, the at least one monitoring device including a battery monitor for determining a state of charge of the battery;
• and
• a remote computing device in signal communication with the wireless communication transceiver via a network, the remote computing device configured to execute an algorithm including at least one condition that must be met to determine that a charging session with respect to the battery of the vehicle is be conducted, the at least one condition including the state of charge of the battery being below a lower threshold value;
• wherein the remote computing device sends a signal to the controller to operate the internal combustion engine and charge the battery when each of the at least one conditions of the algorithm are determined to be met by the remote computing device.
