A control system for estimating a driving range for an electric vehicle is configured to receive route information concerning a journey planned to be undertaken by the vehicle , determine, from the route information, a driving profile for the journey, the driving profile comprising an expected vehicle speed Vseg for each of a plurality of segments of the journey, and determine an adjusted vehicle speed Vadj-seg for each segment in dependence on an adjustment factor, the adjustment factor being based on historical driving data for the vehicle. The control system is further configured to estimate the driving range for the vehicle based on the adjusted vehicle speeds Vadj-seg for each segment of the journey, and output a signal indicative of the estimated driving range. The driving range estimate is able to take into account the manner in which the vehicle has previously been driven, by applying an adjustment factor based on historical data to more generic vehicle speed information.
