A major challenge faced by Electric Vehicle users is to get an estimate of the time taken by the route that depends on parameters such as charger time, geography and temperature Hence it becomes important to find out routes that are energy optimal and time efficient. In this paper, we have devised a method that will help Electric Vehicle users planning longdistance trips get routes that are optimal and get an estimate time needed to complete the trip. The proposed method takes into consideration the temperature and its effect on charging and battery capacity along with other data such as elevation, traffic to get more realistic and time-optimal routes.
