I don't know, how many horsepower per mile does your gas car use? :-\ Obviously horsepower per mile is a nonsense unit, and so is watts per mile (watts and horsepower both measure power). What you want is Watt HOURS per mile. watts = volts * amps = 72 * 40 = 2880W at 40mph A Watt-hour is defined as one watt expended for one hour. Ride for one hour as described above, and you'll use 2880 watt hours to go 40 miles. So your energy use for that ride in watt-hours per mile is 2880 / 40 == 72 Wh/mi. Hope this helps.
