🔋 LFP battery: fine to charge to 100% routinely and very long-lived (cycle-durable); slightly lower energy density and a bit weaker in the cold.

EV details

259 km1-stop range
26 minCharge 10–80%
296 km / 231 kmReal-world range (mild/cold)−22% 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 4 days in winter (−10 °C) and 5 days in mild weather.

Using real-world range, charged to 80 %, 10 % reserve: 207 km per charge in mild weather, 162 km in winter.

600 km long trip
3 charging stops · +67 minmild
4 charging stops · +96 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€24€9.88
