It's actually a 915km trip ending up in the French Alps during winter time, so it's more taxing on the battery. We need some juice left on arrival (30%) You can test it out yourself on ABRP [0]. My trip goes from Lier, Belgium to Les Saisies, France.

With "quickest arrival" setting, ABRP does 4 stops with a total charging time of 1h25min (and 8h29 driving). The stops are 28, 18, 18 and 22 minutes respectively.

You can do it with 3 stops, and perhaps even in 2 stops during the summer and limiting speed, but then you spend more total time charging.

I like the 20 minute stops every ~2 hours. We travel with kids so the bio-break and leg stretching is appreciated. We leave in the wee morning hours so we arrive at the destination in the afternoon and avoid some of the traffic.
