Abstract
A vehicle charging management method is disclosed. The method may include obtaining a first input associated with a vehicle. The first input may include a state of charge (SOC) level of a vehicle battery, a distance travelled by the vehicle since last charge, and time since the last charge. The method may further include obtaining a second input associated with historical vehicle battery charging information. Responsive to obtaining the first input and the second input, the method may include determining a vehicle user intent to charge the vehicle battery. The method may further include comparing the vehicle user intent with a threshold value, and transmitting a notification to a communication device when the vehicle user intent is greater than the threshold value.
