A Melbourne to Sydney Opera House trip in Charge Line: the route on a map with three charging stops, a choice of Fastest, Fewest stops or Most reliable, and the totals: 9 h 47 min, 30 min of it charging, arriving at 5:47 pm.
The trip's three charging stops, RACV in Euroa, Tarcutta Roadhouse and Sally's Corner, each with the battery on arrival and when leaving, the charging time, the weather and how many stalls are free.

Three steps to your next road trip

No account and nothing to set up beyond your car. Charge Line does the maths on range, charging speed and hills, so you can just drive.

  1. Step 1: Choose your car

    Pick from 226 models sold in Australia. Its battery, plugs and charging speed shape every plan, and you can set how healthy your battery is today.

    Choosing your car from the models sold in Australia: a Tesla Model 3 Premium Long Range RWD with a 79 kWh battery and 750 km rated range is selected.
  2. Step 2: Say where you're going

    Charge Line plans the route and the stops, counting hills and highway speeds. Compare Fastest, Fewest stops and Most reliable side by side.

  3. Step 3: Drive it, stop by stop

    Every stop shows the battery you'll arrive and leave with, how long to charge, and the cafés, food and toilets within a short walk.
