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 Mexico.
- Market dataCO2: energy x grid average carbon intensity of 400 g/kWh (Mexico, Ember Climate, Monthly average, May 2026, older than 45 days, last available value).

The 304-kilometer drive from Merida to Cancun in Mexico takes approximately 224 minutes and is not a cross-border journey. Both cities share a hot climate, which generally benefits battery efficiency compared to cold conditions, though air conditioning use may still increase energy consumption. The terrain is likely flat, typical of the Yucatan Peninsula, which aids range predictability. For an EV driver, this route is manageable with one brief charging stop, but the lack of destination charging in Cancun requires careful planning to ensure the vehicle can be recharged upon arrival.
