Seville to Granada by road
The fastest driving route is 254 km (158 mi) long and takes about 3 hr 5 min without stops or traffic. Almost all of it is on the A-92: 240 km of 254 km.
The whole route stays in Andalusia. That’s an average of 82 km/h (51 mph). Spain’s traffic authority (DGT) recommends a break every two hours or 200 km: with 1 stop of 20 minutes, the trip takes about 3 hr 25 min. The time is OSRM’s estimate with OpenStreetMap data: no traffic and speeds somewhat below the limits, so real trips can differ.
Straight-line distance and bearing
In a straight line, the shortest distance over the Earth’s surface, Seville and Granada are 214 km (133 mi) apart. That’s the geodesic on the WGS84 ellipsoid, the distance “as the crow flies”.
The road is 19% longer: for every 100 km in a straight line you drive 119. That’s a normal detour between two cities. Of the 40 Spanish pairs in this series, it ranks 27th for detour (the average is 24%).
From Seville, Granada lies to the east (bearing 96°), and from Granada, Seville lies to the west.
Halfway between Seville and Granada
Halfway along the straight line, 107 km (66.4 mi) from each city, is the point 37.2875° N, 4.7949° W. It falls near Casariche (Seville, pop. 5,291), 3.2 km away. The nearest town of 20,000 people or more is Puente Genil (Córdoba, pop. 29,963), 11.2 km away.
By road, the halfway point is 127 km (78.8 mi) from each city, near La Roda de Andalucía (Seville, pop. 4,168), 3.4 km away. The nearest town of 20,000 people or more is Puente Genil (Córdoba, pop. 29,963), 17.4 km away. The two midpoints almost coincide (6.3 km apart), because the road doesn’t stray far from the straight line.
By plane
No flight time is given: under 500 km (311 miles) in a straight line, time at the airport outweighs time in the air.
