1. A vehicle interface system comprising:
- an interface of a vehicle for communicating with a vehicle user; and
a controller of the vehicle in communication with the interface and configured to;
connect to a mobile device carried by the vehicle user responsive to the vehicle user entering the vehicle;
once connected, retrieve data associated with a calendar event from the mobile device, the data including a destination location and an arrival time at which the calendar event occurs;
prompt the user, via the interface, to verify the destination location of the calendar event before generating trip information;
receive verification of the destination location based on an input from the user via the interface;
prompt the user, via the interface, to verify the arrival time of the calendar event before generating the trip information;
receive verification of the arrival time based on an input from the user via the interface;
identify a driver profile corresponding to the vehicle user based on information received from the mobile device, the driver profile indicating driving behavior of the vehicle user affecting vehicle range;
generate the trip information based on the validated destination location, the arrival time, the driver profile, and vehicle data; and
communicate the trip information to the user via the interface.
