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 United States, residential retail average, as of 17 May 2026, older than 45 days, last available value (0.162 EUR/kWh); public charging tariffs are usually higher.
- Market dataCO2: energy x grid average carbon intensity of 283 g/kWh (United States, U.S. EIA Open Data, as of 17 May 2026, older than 45 days, last available value).

This high density of infrastructure means EV drivers can expect frequent and flexible charging stop opportunities, likely requiring only one brief top-up for most modern electric vehicles, given the distance. Boston’s climate is classified as normal, which suggests minimal seasonal range degradation for the final leg of the journey. The route is not cross-border, so drivers face no international charging network or payment system complications. Practical implications include the ability to plan a single mid-route charge, with the dense station network offering backup options if a particular unit is occupied or out of service.
