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: not shown, because no electricity market price is available for China.
- Market dataCO2: energy x grid average carbon intensity of 440 g/kWh (China, Ember Climate, Monthly average, May 2026, older than 45 days, last available value).

The 1,192-kilometer drive from Chengdu to Zhengzhou in China requires approximately 810 minutes of driving time, presenting a substantial challenge for electric vehicle drivers despite both cities having a normal climate. The route is not cross-border, so no international charging compatibility issues arise. The normal climate conditions in both cities and along the route mean no significant range reduction from cold weather, allowing drivers to rely on standard range estimates. However, the sheer length of the trip demands careful trip planning, including identifying fast-charging stations to minimize total travel time and ensuring adequate buffer range between stops.
