To Set a Radar

Select the three dots on the top right corner
Select “Set a radar”
Set your preferred location by entering the address or positioning the pin on the map. Since you can select a time in the future, this could be a future location such as a baseball game, concert venue, or your in-office day.
- Select your preferred vehicle type in orange; the Chevy Bolt and Nissan Leaf Plus have the most range capacity if you need the car for a longer trip.
Choose your time preferences for available vehicles. The “Now” toggle sets the time to any vehicle available.
- Choose a duration that you want the radar to be active, up to 24 hours long.
- Adjust the search radius for how far you’re willing to walk to pick up an Evie.
Confirm your choices. The final screen is a verification of the information you selected. Once verified, select “Set Radar”. You’ll see a radar icon displayed at the location identified in Step 3.
Once the Radius Function is active, you’ll see the area turn pink. This lets you know that the function is active and searching for an available Evie.
