After 10.1.0 update, In google maps Mach-E battery information is showing and doing automatically charging stops and battery pre condition for charging stops.

I tried to plan a test trip on the native Ford navigation and the Google maps navigation to compare how they work. Google had me stopping way too soon while the Ford app had a more reasonable stop planned. Still happy to have the option of using Google maps with preconditioning. Ford was planning a stop with 50 KM range while Google was stopping with well over 100 Km range left.

Yes, I also noticed for some stops, too early for charging.
In that case, I will do click charging station and replace the charger, then it show near charger along route.

I hope Google ev routing will keep improving
