Both vehicles drove at 130 km/h for the entire trip. The gap is built at the stops: 4 stops totalling 61 min for the EV6 AWD Long Range versus 4 stops totalling 65 min for the Mustang Mach-E RWD.
The official WLTP figures (17,2 kWh/100km for EV6 AWD Long Range and 17,0 kWh/100km for Mustang Mach-E RWD) 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 21,5 kWh/100km (EV6 AWD Long Range) and 21,3 kWh/100km (Mustang Mach-E RWD). Full methodology: see the assumptions below the controls.
During the 61 minutes of charging for the EV6 AWD Long Range, range recovers by 495 km. During the 65 cumulative minutes for the Mustang Mach-E RWD, range recovers by 507 km. Per minute, both recover at the same rate. 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 1,5× the electric cost of the EV6 AWD Long Range and 1,5× that of the Mustang Mach-E RWD. 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 EV6 AWD Long Range arrives in 8h01 with 4 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.
Electric: 73,34 € (EV6 AWD Long Range) and 73,62 € (Mustang Mach-E RWD). An equivalent Peugeot 3008 1.2 PureTech 130 (~7,8 L/100 km) would cost about 112 € in motorway fuel. Electric costs less in energy but adds charging stops.
