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 Turkey.
- Market dataCO2: energy x grid average carbon intensity of 213 g/kWh (Turkey, Ember Climate, Monthly average, May 2026, older than 45 days, last available value).

The 729-kilometer route from Mersin to Samsun, entirely within Turkey, requires a driving time of 512 minutes under normal climate conditions, which means no significant weather-related range reduction for an electric vehicle. The absence of cross-border travel simplifies planning, as no international charging network transitions or currency issues arise. For an EV driver, this route is practical for a single-day trip with one or two charging stops, given the station density and mild climate. Terrain is not specified, but the distance and drive duration suggest a mix of highways and coastal roads typical of Turkey’s Black Sea and Mediterranean regions, which may affect energy consumption slightly but not critically.
