    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus are disclosed for guiding and aligning an electric vehicle with a charging station. In one aspect, a method of guiding an electric vehicle is provided, including determining a location of a charging spot associated to a charging base in relation to a charging coupler of the electric vehicle. The method further includes displaying an indicator of the location of the charging spot in a three dimensional perspective view, the indicator displayed for guiding a user of the electric vehicle to position a charging coupler of the electric vehicle over the charging base within a tolerance area. The method further includes transitioning to displaying the indicator of the location of the charging spot in a two dimensional top-down view based on determining that an angle between a reference point and a point on ground related to the location of the charging spot satisfies a threshold.
