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: estimated energy cost at the average electricity market price for France, day-ahead market, as of 18 Oct 2026 (0.156 EUR/kWh); public charging tariffs are usually higher.
- Market dataCO2: energy x grid average carbon intensity of 22 g/kWh (France, energy-charts, as of 18 Oct 2026).

The route from Nice to Nantes covers 1,144 kilometers and requires approximately 708 minutes of driving time, representing a substantial single-day journey across southern and western France. The normal climate conditions along the entire route minimize battery efficiency concerns, allowing drivers to rely on standard range estimates. For practical planning, an EV with a real-world range of 400 kilometers would require at least two charging stops, though drivers should account for the 708-minute drive time when scheduling breaks. The high station density means drivers can choose from multiple charging options at each stop, reducing the risk of waiting for available units. This route exemplifies the maturity of France's cross-country EV infrastructure for long-distance travel.
