EV details

547 km1-stop range
30 minCharge 10–80%
566 km / 432 kmReal-world range (mild/cold)−24% in winter

Distance with one ~15-min fast charge at 110 km/h (modelled).

Is it enough for your day-to-day?

One charge lasts 7 days in winter (−10 °C) and 9 days in mild weather.

Using real-world range, charged to 80 %, 10 % reserve: 396 km per charge in mild weather, 302 km in winter.

600 km long trip
1 charging stop · +20 minmild
2 charging stops · +39 mincold

Fixed reference (roughly Munich–Berlin): leave full, arrive with a 10% reserve, and charge only what the rest of the trip needs (80% max — past that the curve goes flat). Modelled from real-world range and the charging curve.

Mild means ≈ 23 °C, cold ≈ −10 °C without pre-heating — the same for every car, so the figures compare.

What does charging cost?

Public AC€0.50€44€8.85

Prices from the open assumptions (adjustable in the calculator); consumption = mild real-world incl. charging losses.
