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 514-kilometer route from Monterrey to San Luis Potosi in Mexico presents a significant single-day drive for an electric vehicle, with an estimated driving time of 395 minutes. Given the hot climate in both cities, EV drivers should anticipate reduced battery efficiency due to high temperatures, which can increase energy consumption for cabin cooling. This is not a cross-border journey, so no customs or electrical grid compatibility issues arise. Practical preparation includes pre-conditioning the battery before departure and monitoring energy use closely, as the hot climate and 514-kilometer distance demand careful range management to avoid range anxiety.
