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).

Both cities operate under normal climate conditions, meaning EV drivers can expect standard battery performance without the range reduction associated with colder weather. Since the route is not cross-border, drivers avoid border-related charging complexities. For a typical EV with a real-world range of around 300 kilometers, this journey can be completed on a single charge without a mandatory stop, though the high density of charging stations allows for convenient top-ups if desired. The terrain between these two central Honshu cities is generally flat along the Pacific coast, minimizing energy consumption from elevation changes. Drivers should plan for a potential quick charging stop if their vehicle has a shorter range or if they wish to arrive with ample reserve, but the infrastructure density ensures flexibility and reduces range anxiety on this straightforward Japanese route.
