A Coruña to Vigo by road
The fastest driving route is 160 km (99.3 mi) long and takes about 1 hr 50 min without stops or traffic. Almost all of it is on the AP-9: 154 km of 160 km.
The whole route stays in Galicia. That’s an average of 86 km/h (53 mph), and at under two hours you can do it without stopping. 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, A Coruña and Vigo are 129 km (80.2 mi) apart. That’s the geodesic on the WGS84 ellipsoid, the distance “as the crow flies”.
The road is 24% longer: for every 100 km in a straight line you drive 124. That’s a normal detour between two cities. Of the 120 Spanish driving pairs in this series, it ranks 54th for detour (the average is 24%).
