EV details

403 km1-stop range

37 minCharge 10–80%

463 km / 371 kmReal-world range (mild/cold)−20% in winter

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

Is it enough for your day-to-day?

Your distance per daykm

One charge lasts 6 days in winter (−10 °C) and 8 days in mild weather.

Using real-world range, charged to 80 %, 10 % reserve: 324 km per charge in mild weather, 260 km in winter.

600 km long trip

2 charging stops · +45 minmild

2 charging stops · +66 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?

	€/kWh	Full charge	per 100 km
Home (wallbox)	€0.34	€30	€7.55
Public AC	€0.50	€45	€11.10
DC fast charging	€0.60	€54	€13.33

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

Charging curve (DC)

LFP: affordable & durable, fine to charge to 100% daily, weaker in cold.
