The 259-kilometre route from Pretoria to Polokwane in South Africa presents a straightforward but infrastructure-sparse drive for an EV driver. The journey takes 172 minutes, or just under three hours, and is entirely within a hot climate, which can reduce battery efficiency due to the need for air conditioning. With zero charging stations reported on the route and no stations in either departure or arrival city, drivers must rely on a full charge before leaving Pretoria. The absence of cross-border complications simplifies planning, but the lack of en-route charging means a single-charge range of at least 260 kilometres is essential. Practical implications include pre-trip battery conditioning to maximise range, and drivers should factor in potential climate-related range loss of up to 10-15 percent in hot conditions. Without intermediate charging options, any unexpected detour or traffic delay could create range anxiety, making a conservative driving style and careful speed management advisable for this trip.
