About The EV Route

Updated 2 min read

The EV Route is part of a network of independent reference sites published by one person. The EV Route covers long-distance electric driving: how far you really get at motorway speed, how many stops a corridor needs in summer and winter, and why the charge curve matters more than the peak figure.

How a page gets researched

  1. We define the question the way a reader would search for it, not the way a journal would phrase it.
  2. We pull the literature from PubMed, weighting meta-analyses, systematic reviews, randomised trials and clinical guidelines above everything else.
  3. We read the abstracts and, where access allows, the full text — with attention to sample size, duration, funding and whether the outcome measured is the outcome you care about.
  4. We write the answer, then attach the citations to the specific sentences they support.
  5. We re-check pages when a major trial or guideline lands.

What we are not

This is not medical advice, and it is not a substitute for a clinician who knows your history. Nutrition and drug research is noisy, effect sizes in free-living humans are usually smaller than the headline suggests, and almost every finding here is an average that may not describe you.
