A method and associated system for selecting a charging station for a subject vehicle is described, and includes determining a state of charge of an on-vehicle DC power source arranged to supply electric power to a propulsion system for the subject vehicle. A travel route to a destination point is determined, and locations of a plurality of charging stations proximal to the travel route are identified. Desired states and corresponding weighting factors for a plurality of user-selectable parameters are determined, and a sorting routine is executed to rank the plurality of charging stations proximal to the travel route based upon the desired states and corresponding weighting factors for the plurality of user-selectable parameters and the state of charge of the on-vehicle DC power source. One of the charging stations is selected based upon the ranking, and a charging reservation is scheduled.
