Abstract With the continuously increasing penetration of electric vehicles (EVs), the mutual match between the distribution of charging resources and the spatial–temporal distribution of EV charging demands is becoming increasingly important. To address this, this paper proposes a novel two‐stage customized EV charging–navigation strategy. Building on previous research on the real‐time information from dynamic traffic networks, a personalized dynamic road impedance (PDRI) model is built to transform three main criteria (distance, time, and finance) affecting charging–navigation into comprehensive road impedance. In the first navigation stage, fast‐charging stations (FCSs) with the lowest overall objective are selected. In the second navigation stage, an improved Floyd–Warshall algorithm is utilized to identify the routes with the lowest personalized weight to the selected FCS in the PDRI model. Notably, the personalized preferences of EV drivers for the three primary criteria are considered in both stages of the navigation process. Finally, simulation results demonstrate a significant improvement in the degree of matching between charging navigation plans and drivers' personalized requirements, and a more balanced spatial–temporal distribution of EV charging demands among FCSs, which verifies the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.
