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 Japan.
- Market dataCO2: energy x grid average carbon intensity of 407 g/kWh (Japan, Ember Climate, Monthly average, March 2026, older than 45 days, last available value).

Driving an electric vehicle from Yokohama to Niigata covers 341 kilometers, with an estimated drive time of 293 minutes. The route is entirely within Japan and crosses no borders, with both cities experiencing normal climates that do not impose significant range reduction. Given the distance, most EVs will require at least one charging stop, though the dense station network allows for flexible planning. The journey’s duration suggests a mix of highway and local roads, which may affect efficiency, but the normal climate conditions mean battery performance should remain stable. Drivers should note the limited charging infrastructure in Niigata and plan to arrive with sufficient charge for local travel.
