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 Brazil.
- Market dataCO2: energy x grid average carbon intensity of 63 g/kWh (Brazil, Ember Climate, Monthly average, April 2026, older than 45 days, last available value).

Driving from Salvador to Fortaleza in Brazil covers 1200 kilometers with an estimated drive time of 964 minutes, a journey that requires careful planning for electric vehicle drivers given the hot climate at both ends. The hot climate, while not causing the severe range reduction seen in cold conditions, can still impact battery efficiency due to thermal management demands, particularly during sustained highway driving. Since this is not a cross-border route, drivers avoid the complication of different charging standards or payment systems. Practical implications include scheduling stops at stations with reliable cooling infrastructure and accounting for potential queuing at the sparse urban chargers.
