Both vehicles drove at 130 km/h for the entire trip. The gap is built at the stops: 3 stops totalling 59 min for the EV6 RWD Long Range versus 5 stops totalling 94 min for the EV6 RWD Standard Range.
The official WLTP figures (16,5 kWh/100km for EV6 RWD Long Range and 16,5 kWh/100km for EV6 RWD Standard Range) 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 20,6 kWh/100km (EV6 RWD Long Range) and 20,6 kWh/100km (EV6 RWD Standard Range). Full methodology: see the dedicated button above the summary.
During the 59 minutes of charging for the EV6 RWD Long Range, range recovers by 483 km. During the 94 cumulative minutes for the EV6 RWD Standard Range, range recovers by 570 km. Per minute: the EV6 RWD Long Range 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 1,6× the electric cost of the EV6 RWD Long Range and 1,5× that of the EV6 RWD Standard Range. 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 RWD Long Range arrives in 8h with 3 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: 69,27 € (EV6 RWD Long Range) and 76,47 € (EV6 RWD Standard Range). An equivalent petrol SUV (~8 L/100 km) would cost about 115 € in motorway fuel. Electric costs less in energy but adds charging stops.
