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: 333 km per charge in mild weather, 263 km in winter.

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	€6.97
Public AC	€0.50	€44	€10.25
DC fast charging	€0.60	€53	€12.29

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

Charging curve (DC)

NMC: high energy density (more range), usually charge to ~80% for longevity.
