The drive

Driving Istanbul to Izmir on electric

The run is about 409 km, near 4.1 hours of motorway driving before stops. Plan for 1 fast top-up on the way, charging from low to about 80% where the curve is quickest. CCS is the standard DC plug across this region, and the chargers above are the indexed 150 kW+ sites closest to the line, so a stop rarely costs you a long detour.

We index 87 fast sites within about 12 km of this route, so you are rarely far from a 150 kW+ charger. Aim to arrive at each stop with 10-20% left, top up to 80%, and roll on — that band is where DC charging is quickest.

How we estimate this

Where these numbers come from

Distance is the great-circle distance between city centers multiplied by 1.25 to approximate real roads. Drive time assumes a 100 km/h motorway average, and the stop count assumes about 250 km between top-ups, deliberately conservative for cold weather and fast driving. Trip energy uses 0.18 kWh per km, a typical real-world figure for a mid-size EV. The chargers are real indexed sites within ~12 km of the sampled line, ordered by how far along the route they sit.

For an exact plan, charge curves, weather and live availability all matter. Check a specific site on the live map before you set off.
