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 294-kilometer drive from Mexico City to Morelia, with an estimated driving time of 223 minutes, presents a manageable route for an electric vehicle in a hot climate. The hot climate of both cities means minimal range reduction from temperature extremes, allowing drivers to rely closely on the vehicle's rated range. Since this is not a cross-border trip, no additional border-crossing logistics apply. The terrain between the two highland cities involves significant elevation changes, which can affect energy consumption; regenerative braking on descents can partially offset the energy used on climbs. A practical strategy is to charge to around 80 percent at a station roughly halfway, ensuring comfortable arrival in Morelia with sufficient reserve for local driving.
