The Citroën C4 electric will be equipped with a new route planner

Citroën announces that a planner will be available in the new electric C4 called “e-routes”. 

The application is provided by Free2Move, developed by Stellantis Software division, announces the French manufacturer in a press release. 

What does the new application do? 

The new “planner” “shares real-time data about the vehicle”: battery charge status, energy consumption, charging mode, air temperature. These data will assist the driver during their trip, including helping to find the nearest station to recharge the vehicle. The novelty is compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It will be accessible on your phone or on your vehicle’s touchscreen with your Mycitroën account.

In short, once your departure is registered in the browser, the planner will help you find charging points along your route, making the trip easier.  

This is not the first automaker to launch its own planner 

Many automakers have their own planners. The American company Tesla obviously has its own planner. There’s also Mini, which yesterday announced the features of its new OLED screen and took the opportunity to introduce its new navigation system, which will be cloud-based.   

The “e-routes” application will be rolled out next October, but the navigator is available in the Connect Plus pack for 12 months, for new buyers of the ë-C4 and ë-C4 X.
