Cairo→Hurghada

The Red Sea coastal road — 450 km, and the first Egyptian drive that genuinely leaves most EVs short of a single charge.

Open directions in Google Maps

The corridor

  1. Cairo

    0 km

    Leave fully charged. This one needs real planning — the stretch between Sokhna and Hurghada is the thinnest coverage in any of our Egyptian corridors.

  2. Ain Sokhna

    120 km

    The last sizeable built-up area before the open coast. If your summer range is under 350 km, this is where you charge before continuing.

  3. Infinity — Red Sea coastal road

    150 km
    Infinity EVType 222 kWsourceunverified

    The one Infinity node recorded on this road — 22 kW AC, so hours not minutes, and its position is published without operating detail. Do not build the plan on it alone.

  4. Zaafarana

    190 km

    Where the coastal road meets the Kuraimat road. Fuel rest-stops, and no public charger we know of.

  5. Ras Gharib

    300 km

    An oil town and roughly the halfway mark. Arriving here under 40% battery, the honest call is to turn back to Sokhna rather than continue.

  6. Hurghada

    450 km

    Arrival. Hotels are the practical charging source here — ask before you book, not every resort has a point.

The nearest charger we can genuinely stand behind is the Somabay point (22 kW, Type 2), about 25 km south of Hurghada — count it into your distance.
Every charger we know of on this road is AC. Treat any stop as an overnight charge, not a half-hour break.
Verify before you travel — corridor coverage is not guaranteed

    Can't safely reach — charge earlier or slow down

Estimates only: we always keep a 12% reserve and cap charging at 90% (it slows sharply above that). Real range varies with wind, load and traffic — confirm every charger before departure.
