The collection, communication, storage, monitoring, and analysis of environmental, vehicle, charger, and charging session data over a single EV or over a fleet of EVs is used to enhance or optimize existing services as well as deliver new services based on analysis of the collected data. One such service is reduction in total cost of travel. The cost minimization is achieved with near-real-time data, models populated using past collected data, and knowledge of energy costs and of chargers located in different geographic areas with potentially limited power for charging available at each charger site or station. A fleet management application used for cost minimization optimizes cost of travel for a single EV or for an entire fleet. Using individual EVs cost optimization as a goal, each EV may be optimized for potential local minimum cost of travel based on predictions using data collected from the fleet or from multiple fleets.
