Both vehicles drove at 130 km/h for the entire trip. The gap is built at the stops: 4 stops totalling 20 min for the Panamera 4 E-Hybrid versus 4 stops totalling 37 min for the Taycan.
The official WLTP figures (28,2 kWh/100km for Panamera 4 E-Hybrid and 20,4 kWh/100km for Taycan) 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 12,9 L/100km (Panamera 4 E-Hybrid) and 23,8 kWh/100km (Taycan). Full methodology: see the assumptions below the controls.
A Mercedes S 450 (equivalent segment) consumes about 9,0 L/100km on the motorway at 130 km/h. At 1,9 €/L, this Paris → Marseille trip would cost ~129 €. That is 0,6× the electric cost of the Panamera 4 E-Hybrid and 1,5× that of the Taycan. 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 Panamera 4 E-Hybrid arrives in 7h21 with 4 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 205.58 € (Panamera 4 E-Hybrid) and 85.12 € (Taycan). For reference, an equivalent Mercedes S 450 (~9.0 L/100 km) would cost about 129 € in fuel.
