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 775-kilometre route from Hamburg to Munich, both situated in Germany’s cold climate, presents a significant challenge for EV drivers due to anticipated range reduction in low temperatures. Despite the cold climate, which can diminish battery efficiency by 20 to 30 percent, the high density of stations ensures that drivers can plan stops without range anxiety. The route remains within Germany, avoiding cross-border complications such as differing charging standards or payment systems. For a typical long-range EV, a driver might need to stop every 250 to 300 kilometres, meaning two stops are realistic, each lasting around 20 to 40 minutes depending on charger speed. The flat terrain of northern Germany and the gradual elevation changes toward Munich should not drastically affect consumption, but cold weather remains the primary factor reducing real-world range.
