Abstract
An illustrative example system includes a user interface configured to provide information to an individual in a vehicle. A controller is configured to estimate a remaining power capacity of a source of electric power that will remain after travelling along an identified route to an identified destination. The controller determines whether the estimated remaining power capacity will be sufficient for travelling from the identified destination to at least one known location where increasing the power capacity of the source is possible. The user interface provides an indication of at least one recommendation regarding increasing the power capacity of the source prior to reaching the identified destination when the estimated remaining power capacity will not be sufficient for travelling from the identified destination to the at least one known location.
