Apple Maps (w/EV routing) and CarPlay

Overall, we've been very impressed with Apple Maps via CarPlay. It is as accurate with battery estimates as the PCM is. The visualisations are probably better than the PCM navigation and it even speaks directions to us in an Irish accent.

From a visualisation perspective – the main thing we're missing – when doing a multi-waypoint route like we do for a road-trip – is that it only shows (accurate) time and battery charge of arrival for your next waypoint.

We like to keep an eye on the overall route arrival time and battery too – but that is not possible in Apple Maps today. Also, distance as well as time is important and not shown either.

But its very close to being a viable solution. Surprisingly so.
