Weather: each vehicle uses its own hot, normal and cold factor from our vehicle data, so consumption = efficiency x 1.00 / factor. Hot is 25 °C and above, normal is 10-25 °C, cold is below 10 °C.

EV charging analysis

While the station count is substantial for a dense metropolis, the sheer number of vehicles means public chargers may face peak-time congestion. The absence of an estimated EV count limits precise demand analysis, but the infrastructure appears adequate for current adoption levels, though expansion will be necessary as electrification grows. Drivers should focus on route planning around the M25 and central London corridors, where station density is highest, to mitigate range anxiety in colder months.
