We recommend using the train as it is the most popular way to get from Montpellier to Stuttgart among Omio's users.
Take the train. It's meaningfully faster than driving, and the time saved usually justifies the price.

You'll arrive about 2h 32m sooner (7h 1m by train vs 9h 33m by car). Tickets start at around $260 compared to roughly $258 in fuel and tolls — so you're paying a bit more, but getting hours of your day back, a city-centre arrival, and the freedom to work or relax instead of drive.

Driving makes more sense if you're travelling as a group (where fuel costs split several ways), want to stop along the way, or need a car once you arrive.
