Assumptions behind these numbers
- Model assumptionStart charge 100%, arrive with 15% in reserve, charge up to 80% at each stop.
- Model assumptionUsable battery: 100% of each vehicle's listed capacity (the listed capacity may be gross or net; no correction is applied).
- Model assumptionSpeed: consumption starts from each vehicle's listed real-world efficiency, times a speed factor of 1.00 (1.00 = no speed adjustment).
- Vehicle dataWeather: 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.
- Model assumptionCharging speed: average power = min(vehicle peak kW, 150 kW cap) x 0.60 taper, plus 5 min per stop.
- MethodRange, energy and cost all use the same consumption figure. Energy is measured at the battery; charging losses are not included.
- MethodCharging stops are estimated from range and the charging window. They are not verified charging stations.
- Market dataCost: estimated energy cost at the average electricity market price for Germany, day-ahead market, as of 18 Oct 2026 (0.172 EUR/kWh); public charging tariffs are usually higher.
- Market dataCO2: energy x grid average carbon intensity of 258 g/kWh (Germany, energy-charts, as of 18 Oct 2026).

The 571-kilometer drive from Berlin to Dusseldorf, lasting 337 minutes, is a domestic German route that remains entirely within a cold climate zone. EV drivers should anticipate a significant range reduction of up to 30 percent due to low temperatures, meaning a vehicle with a nominal 400-kilometer range may only achieve around 280 kilometers in practice. This makes at least one, and likely two, charging stops necessary for most electric cars on this journey. The high station density reduces the risk of encountering unavailable chargers, but drivers should still plan for longer charging sessions in cold weather, as battery preconditioning and slower charging rates are common. Since the route is not cross-border, no currency or account issues arise, and all charging can be handled with a single German provider or roaming card.
