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 an electric vehicle from Sao Paulo to Porto Alegue involves a 1,130-kilometer route through Brazil's hot climate, which generally supports stable battery performance but may require increased cabin cooling. This is not a cross-border route, so no customs or grid compatibility issues arise. For an EV driver, the ample station density suggests that range anxiety should be minimal, though the hot climate could slightly reduce range if air conditioning is used heavily. Charging stops will likely be necessary every 200-300 kilometers, depending on vehicle efficiency, making this a manageable but long-distance trip that benefits from the route's robust infrastructure.
