Understanding Electric Vehicle Performance in our App
Electric vehicles (EVs) have unique performance characteristics that can affect how our app measures and analyses driving behaviour. Here's what you need to know about how we're optimising our app for EV drivers.
Regenerative Braking
We recognise that EVs use regenerative braking systems differently from conventional vehicles. Our development team is currently refining our algorithms to better account for this, particularly in how we measure and assess hard braking events.
Acceleration Measurements
We understand that EVs have different acceleration patterns compared to conventional vehicles. As many of our users alternate between EVs and traditional vehicles, we're working to ensure our scoring system remains fair and consistent across all vehicle types.
Driving Style Tips
While EVs are capable of rapid acceleration, we've observed that drivers typically adapt their driving style over time. Most users naturally develop a smoother driving technique by applying gentler acceleration, which can improve both efficiency and safety scores.
