| Total time | 8h09 | 7h34 | 35 min · Han EV 200kW 2WD |
| Charging stops | 4 stops | 2 stops | 2 stops · Han EV 200kW 2WD |
| Cost of energy used | 86.68 € | 50.57 € | 36.11 € · Han EV 200kW 2WD |
Both vehicles drove at 130 km/h for the entire trip. The gap is built at the stops: 2 stops totalling 33 min for the Han EV 200kW 2WD versus 4 stops totalling 69 min for the Model S 85.
The official WLTP figures (23,5 kWh/100km for Model S 85 and 16,0 kWh/100km for Han EV 200kW 2WD) 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 24,6 kWh/100km (Model S 85) and 17,3 kWh/100km (Han EV 200kW 2WD). Full methodology: see the assumptions below the controls.
During the 33 minutes of charging for the Han EV 200kW 2WD, range recovers by 373 km. During the 69 cumulative minutes for the Model S 85, range recovers by 523 km. Per minute: the Han EV 200kW 2WD recovers 1,5× faster. The gap is less pronounced but accumulates over long distances.
A BMW 530i (equivalent segment) consumes about 8,0 L/100km on the motorway at 130 km/h. At 1,9 €/L, this Paris → Marseille trip would cost ~115 €. That is 1,3× the electric cost of the Model S 85 and 2,3× that of the Han EV 200kW 2WD. 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 Han EV 200kW 2WD arrives in 7h34 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 86.68 € (Model S 85) and 50.57 € (Han EV 200kW 2WD). For reference, an equivalent BMW 530i (~8.0 L/100 km) would cost about 115 € in fuel.
