Drivers of current generation plugin vehicles understand that their range can be great effected by the route they take, something Pioneer is looking to help with its latest satellite navigation system.

Behold the AVIC-ZHO9-MEV, this 7 inch TFT clad device estimates your EV’s power reserves and adjust routes accordingly. The unit will direct drivers around steep inclines, away from motorways and down sloped roads to ensure the maximum amount of energy is recouped through braking.

Being a Pioneer device, it also features all the usual bells and whistles you would expect from a high end in car enetertainment system incluing DVDs playback, TV and MP3s on its 7inch display. Expect to pay over £2,000 for the unit, so start saving plug in Hypermilers.
