|---|---|---|---|
| Total time | 8h20 | 8h21 | 1 min · 4 XPower AWD |
| Charging stops | 5 stops | 3 stops | 2 stops · P7 |
| Cost of energy used | 77.01 € | 68.98 € | 8.03 € · P7 |
Both vehicles drove at 130 km/h for the entire trip. The gap is built at the stops: 5 stops totalling 79 min for the 4 XPower AWD versus 3 stops totalling 80 min for the P7.
The official WLTP figures (17,8 kWh/100km for 4 XPower AWD and 17,2 kWh/100km for P7) 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 21,4 kWh/100km (4 XPower AWD) and 20,6 kWh/100km (P7). Full methodology: see the assumptions below the controls.
During the 79 minutes of charging for the 4 XPower AWD, range recovers by 543 km. During the 80 cumulative minutes for the P7, range recovers by 479 km. Per minute: the 4 XPower AWD recovers 1,1× faster. The gap is less pronounced but accumulates over long distances.
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 1,3× the electric cost of the 4 XPower AWD and 1,4× that of the P7. 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 4 XPower AWD arrives in 8h20 with 5 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 77.01 € (4 XPower AWD) and 68.98 € (P7). For reference, an equivalent Peugeot 308 1.2 PureTech 130 (~6.8 L/100 km) would cost about 97 € in fuel.
