London to Chicago: A Road Trip for the Ages (Or Not)
So, you're thinking of driving from London to Chicago, huh? Well, buckle up, buttercup, because this is going to be a wild ride. Not the kind with hairpin turns and breathtaking scenery, but the kind with endless plains, questionable rest stops, and the constant question, "Are we there yet?"

| How Far Is London From Chicago By Car |
Let's Talk Numbers (Or Not)
The distance between London and Chicago is a cool 3,974.7 miles. That's like driving from New York to Los Angeles, then turning around and doing it again. For those of you who are metrically inclined, that's about 6,400 kilometers. Or, if you prefer, it’s roughly the distance a particularly ambitious squirrel could cover in a year.
Tip: A slow skim is better than a rushed read.
You’ll Need a Bigger Car (And a Bigger Bladder)
Let's assume you can average a leisurely 60 miles per hour. That means you'll be on the road for a whopping 66 hours. Yes, you read that right. Two and a half days of non-stop driving. You might want to invest in a car with a toilet, or at least a really good bladder training program.
QuickTip: Return to sections that felt unclear.

What About the Atlantic Ocean?
Ah, the small detail of the Atlantic Ocean. You know, that big body of water that separates Europe from America? Yeah, that one. So, unless you've invented a car that can float (and we haven't heard about that yet), you might want to reconsider your mode of transport.
Tip: Take a sip of water, then continue fresh.
The Real Question: Why?
Seriously, why would you want to drive from London to Chicago? You could fly there in about 8 hours. You could take a train. You could even swim (if you're really committed). But driving? It's like choosing to walk to the moon because you're bored with stairs.
Tip: Avoid distractions — stay in the post.
