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 India.
- Market dataCO2: energy x grid average carbon intensity of 568 g/kWh (India, Ember Climate, Monthly average, May 2026, older than 45 days, last available value).

The 1,125-kilometre drive from Delhi to Surat, with a drive duration of 838 minutes, presents a demanding but feasible journey for an electric vehicle. Both cities share a hot climate, which typically reduces battery range less severely than cold weather, but high temperatures can still accelerate battery degradation and increase cooling load. The route is not cross-border, simplifying planning. Practically, an EV driver should expect to stop for charging multiple times, likely every 150–200 kilometres, given the available infrastructure density. The total driving time of nearly 14 hours suggests at least two or three charging stops, each adding 30–60 minutes, extending the total journey to 16–17 hours. Drivers should pre-plan charging stops near the midpoint to avoid range anxiety, especially as Surat lacks destination charging.
