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 United Kingdom.
- Market dataCO2: energy x grid average carbon intensity of 78 g/kWh (United Kingdom, uk-ngeso, as of 18 Oct 2026).

The 190-kilometre route from London to Bristol, with a drive duration of 146 minutes, presents a manageable journey for most modern electric vehicles on a single charge, even under cold climate conditions. Both cities experience a cold climate, which typically reduces EV range by 10 to 30 percent due to increased energy use for cabin heating and battery thermal management. Despite this, the distance is well within the range of current long-range EVs, meaning drivers can likely complete the trip without needing to charge en route. Since this is not a cross-border journey, no additional considerations for different charging networks or payment systems arise.
