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 Japan.
- Market dataCO2: energy x grid average carbon intensity of 407 g/kWh (Japan, Ember Climate, Monthly average, March 2026, older than 45 days, last available value).

With a drive duration of 246 minutes, or just over four hours, most electric vehicles will require at least one charging stop, though the dense infrastructure makes planning flexible. The climate is normal for both cities, meaning no significant range reduction from cold weather is expected, and the route is not cross-border, eliminating customs or charging compatibility concerns. Drivers should anticipate a single mid-route charge, but the high station count allows for shorter top-ups at multiple points if preferred. The terrain between these coastal cities is largely flat and urbanized, further supporting efficient energy consumption. This route is well-suited for both local and long-distance EV travel in Japan.
