| Total time | 7h06 | 7h11 | 5 min · Q7 SUV |
| Charging stops | 1 stop | 2 stops | 1 stop · Q7 SUV |
| Cost of energy used | 176.58 € | 167.51 € | 9.07 € · X2 xDrive25e F39 |
Both vehicles drove at 130 km/h for the entire trip. The Q7 SUV (combustion) makes 1 stop of 5 min, the X2 xDrive25e F39 (plug-in hybrid) 2 stops totalling 10 min. Road safety reminder: on a trip of this duration, it is recommended to stop for at least 51 min total (17 min every 2h). The energy cost is 176,58 € for Q7 SUV versus 167,51 € for X2 xDrive25e F39.
The official WLTP figures (8,4 L/100km for Q7 SUV and 17,3 kWh/100km for X2 xDrive25e F39) are measured on a mixed cycle averaging ~46 km/h. At a steady 130 km/h, aerodynamic drag weighs much more heavily - it grows with the square of speed. Caralogy calculates a motorway consumption specific to each vehicle based on its aerodynamic profile (SCx), weight and power curve - not a uniform correction factor. For this trip, the simulation yields 10,5 L/100km (Q7 SUV) and 10,5 L/100km (X2 xDrive25e F39). Full methodology: see the assumptions below the controls.
On a 200 km round trip (e.g. a weekend getaway), the electric or plug-in hybrid vehicle completes the entire journey on home energy at 0.20 €/kWh - with no charging stop. The time advantage of the combustion car on long-distance motorways disappears entirely, and the economic advantage of electric strengthens considerably.

On Paris → Marseille (775 km at 130 km/h), the Q7 SUV arrives in 7h06 with 1 fuel stop.
WLTP consumption does not reflect motorway reality. Aerodynamic drag grows with the square of speed, so real consumption is 15 to 25 % higher than WLTP combined. Caralogy calculates a highway consumption specific to each vehicle based on its aerodynamic profile (SCx), weight and power curve.
Total time = driving time + charging time. Driving time is calculated at an average speed of 130 km/h on the motorway (adjustable). Charging time is calculated based on the real power curve of each vehicle, respecting the optimal 10 → 80 % range and the maximum power accepted by the chargers on the route.
No. The displayed cost covers only the energy consumed during the trip: kWh × energy rate, with a mix of home charging and DC fast chargers. Battery wear is a long-term ownership cost, not a trip cost.
On this trip, the energy used costs 176.58 € (Q7 SUV) and 167.51 € (X2 xDrive25e F39). For reference, an equivalent Peugeot 3008 1.2 PureTech 130 (~7.8 L/100 km) would cost about 112 € in fuel.
