Trip mapped at a glance. Charging stops visible, total duration predictable. Caralogy simulation at 130 km/h.
| Measure | 225xe F44 | 320e G20 | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total time | 7h11 | 7h06 | 5 min · 320e G20 |
| Charging stops | 2 stops | 1 stop | 1 stop · 320e G20 |
| Cost of energy used | 144.19 € | 152.16 € | 7.97 € · 225xe F44 |
Both vehicles drove at 130 km/h for the entire trip. The gap is built at the stops: 1 stop of 5 min for the 320e G20 versus 2 stops totalling 10 min for the 225xe F44.
The official WLTP figures (17,9 kWh/100km for 225xe F44 and 14,8 kWh/100km for 320e G20) 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 9,1 L/100km (225xe F44) and 9,6 L/100km (320e G20). Full methodology: see the assumptions below the controls.
A Peugeot 308 1.2 PureTech 130 (equivalent segment) consumes about 6,8 L/100km on the motorway at 130 km/h. At 1,9 €/L, this Paris → Marseille trip would cost ~97 €. That is 0,7× the electric cost of the 225xe F44 and 0,6× that of the 320e G20. The gap narrows in winter but never reverses.

On Paris → Marseille (775 km at 130 km/h), the 320e G20 arrives in 7h06 with 1 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.
Electric: 144,19 € (225xe F44) and 152,16 € (320e G20). An equivalent Peugeot 308 1.2 PureTech 130 (~6,8 L/100 km) would cost about 97 € in motorway fuel. Electric costs less in energy but adds charging stops.
