| Cost of energy used | 55.20 € | 52.19 € | 3.01 € · ID.7 Pro S |
Both vehicles drove at 130 km/h for the entire trip. The gap is built at the stops: 2 stops totalling 21 min for the ID.7 Pro S versus 4 stops totalling 31 min for the Model 3 Standard Range Plus.
The official WLTP figures (14,9 kWh/100km for Model 3 Standard Range Plus and 14,9 kWh/100km for ID.7 Pro S) 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 15,7 kWh/100km (Model 3 Standard Range Plus) and 17,9 kWh/100km (ID.7 Pro S). Full methodology: see the assumptions below the controls.
During the 21 minutes of charging for the ID.7 Pro S, range recovers by 372 km. During the 31 cumulative minutes for the Model 3 Standard Range Plus, range recovers by 520 km. Per minute: the ID.7 Pro S recovers 1,1× faster. The gap is less pronounced but accumulates over long distances.
A Peugeot 508 1.6 PureTech 180 (equivalent segment) consumes about 7,2 L/100km on the motorway at 130 km/h. At 1,9 €/L, this Paris → Marseille trip would cost ~103 €. That is 1,9× the electric cost of the Model 3 Standard Range Plus and 2,0× that of the ID.7 Pro S. 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 ID.7 Pro S arrives in 7h22 with 2 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 55.20 € (Model 3 Standard Range Plus) and 52.19 € (ID.7 Pro S). For reference, an equivalent Peugeot 508 1.6 PureTech 180 (~7.2 L/100 km) would cost about 103 € in fuel.
