Both vehicles drive at 130 km/h. The difference comes from charging stops.
Analysis
Both vehicles drove at 130 km/h for the entire trip. The gap is built at the stops: 7 stops totalling 54 min for the Megane E-Tech Electric 130 versus 4 stops totalling 58 min for the e-208 156 Phase 2.
The official WLTP figures (14,2 kWh/100km for e-208 156 Phase 2 and 15,2 kWh/100km for Megane E-Tech Electric 130) 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 16,8 kWh/100km (e-208 156 Phase 2) and 18,2 kWh/100km (Megane E-Tech Electric 130). Full methodology: see the dedicated button above the summary.
During the 54 minutes of charging for the Megane E-Tech Electric 130, range recovers by 609 km. During the 58 cumulative minutes for the e-208 156 Phase 2, range recovers by 530 km. Per minute: the Megane E-Tech Electric 130 recovers 1,2× faster. The gap is less pronounced but accumulates over long distances.
A Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech 100 (equivalent segment) consumes about 6,2 L/100km on the motorway at 130 km/h. At 1,9 €/L, this Paris → Marseille trip would cost ~89 €. That is 1,9× the electric cost of the e-208 156 Phase 2 and 1,6× that of the Megane E-Tech Electric 130. The gap narrows in winter but never reverses.
The cost per kilometre depends on the electricity rate applied to each segment — based on the energy source used at that point of the trip.

The advantage comes from the combo real range + charging speed. On Paris → Marseille (775 km at 130 km/h), the Megane E-Tech Electric 130 arrives in 7h55 with 7 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: 47,42 € (e-208 156 Phase 2) and 54,97 € (Megane E-Tech Electric 130). An equivalent petrol SUV (~8 L/100 km) would cost about 115 € in motorway fuel. Electric costs less in energy but adds charging stops.
