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 Australia.
- Market dataCO2: energy x grid average carbon intensity of 480 g/kWh (Australia, Ember Climate, Monthly average, June 2026, older than 45 days, last available value).

The 84-kilometre drive from Sydney to Wollongong in Australia’s hot climate presents a straightforward journey for EV drivers, requiring no en-route charging stops given the short distance and 81-minute drive duration. The hot climate, common to both cities, may slightly reduce battery efficiency during peak summer, but the distance is so modest that range anxiety is effectively eliminated. This route exemplifies a simple, low-risk trip for EV drivers, where the primary consideration is not range but rather the convenience of using one of the many available stations for a quick charge upon arrival in Wollongong.
