Both vehicles drove at 130 km/h for the entire trip. The gap is built at the stops: 2 stops totalling 36 min for the Seal 313 2WD versus 3 stops totalling 57 min for the iX M60 I20.
The official WLTP figures (23,3 kWh/100km for iX M60 I20 and 16,0 kWh/100km for Seal 313 2WD) 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 29,1 kWh/100km (iX M60 I20) and 17,3 kWh/100km (Seal 313 2WD). Full methodology: see the assumptions below the controls.
During the 36 minutes of charging for the Seal 313 2WD, range recovers by 389 km. During the 57 cumulative minutes for the iX M60 I20, range recovers by 461 km. Per minute: the Seal 313 2WD recovers 1,3× faster. The gap is less pronounced but accumulates over long distances.
A Peugeot 3008 1.2 PureTech 130 (equivalent segment) consumes about 7,8 L/100km on the motorway at 130 km/h. At 1,9 €/L, this Paris → Marseille trip would cost ~112 €. That is 1,2× the electric cost of the iX M60 I20 and 2,2× that of the Seal 313 2WD. The gap narrows in winter but never reverses.

The advantage comes from the combo real range + charging speed. On Paris → Marseille (775 km at 130 km/h), the Seal 313 2WD arrives in 7h37 with 2 charging stops.
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 95.30 € (iX M60 I20) and 51.65 € (Seal 313 2WD). For reference, an equivalent Peugeot 3008 1.2 PureTech 130 (~7.8 L/100 km) would cost about 112 € in fuel.
