1. A computer-implemented method for managing energy usage of an at least partially electric vehicle, comprising:
- at a computer system of the at least partially electric vehicle, the computer system including one or more processors, and memory storing one or more programs, and a display device, the one or more processors executing the one or more programs to perform the operations of;
receiving a charge level of at least one battery of the at least partially electric vehicle;
receiving a current location of the at least partially electric vehicle;
determining a theoretical maximum range of the at least partially electric vehicle based on the current location of the at least partially electric vehicle and the charge level of the at least one battery of the at least partially electric vehicle;
displaying on the display device a geographic map including the current location of the at least partially electric vehicle; and
displaying a first boundary on the geographic map indicating the maximum theoretical range of the at least partially electric vehicle.

Abstract
A system and method for managing energy usage in an electric vehicle. A charge level of at least one battery of the electric vehicle is received. A current location of the electric vehicle is received. A theoretical maximum range of the electric vehicle is determined based on the current location of the electric vehicle and the charge level of the at least one battery of the electric vehicle. An energy plan for the electric vehicle is generated
