What these routes from London cover

Of the 36 routes worked out from London, 1 are under 30 km, 10 fall between 30 and 60 km and 25 go beyond 60 km. The shortest reaches Watford, 25 km away, about 38 min at 45 km/h. The longest runs to Newport, 199 km and 4h 59min of driving.

For an electric license-free car, range is the question. Counting about a hundred kilometres per charge, 18 of these 36 routes are done in one go, and 18 need a charge on the way or an overnight stop. A petrol one covers the lot with no constraint, on a tank of around 20 litres.

These distances are not straight-line measurements: they come from TacTac's route calculation, which leaves out the motorways and expressways banned for light quadricycles and works at a 45 km/h top speed. A London → Watford therefore looks longer than in an ordinary car, but it matches the road you can actually drive.
