Well, that’s not how efficiency is measured but I think I know what you mean.
The Wh per mile is mostly a function of weight. Aero starts to weigh in around
55mph. On conversions a good estimate is weight divided by 10. My car weighs
3100 lbs
My Leaf has at least 5 mi/kWh driving almost exclusively freeway at 55 MPH.
I have said it before and I will repeat: Leaf *can* have very high
efficiency, the biggest impact is aligning for zero toe, which only
requires a pair of wrenches and flat road and a good eye, I have done
it to several
My Bolt routinely averages over 4 miles per kwh from the pack, about 3.8 mpk
from the wall. About 1/2 my driving is at speeds of 65mph and above.
My wife averages about 5 mpk from the batteries in her Volt, but she mostly
drives at less than 50mph.
FWIW The Volt is somewhat more effecient at

Mark, I'd say your Tesla is doing pretty darn well for such a portly
vehicle. Over 2 tons! Yikes.
Some carefully designed conversions have managed outstanding efficiency.
James Worden of Solectria was obsessive about it, and Forces (Geo Metro
conversions) routinely got 150-180 Wh/mi when

That's very cool to hear. I have heard over the years that the defacto
EV efficiency is about 3 miles per kWh, measured at the battery, or 333
Wh per mile. So Tesla has done a great job. I wonder what the Bolt and
some other longer range EVs can do.

Hi folks
My heavy 4400lb Tesla Y is more efficient than I thought, close to EPA rating,
measured 265 watt hours per mile at the wall outlet with a GE KWh meter over
144 miles various hwy/city driving. The laptop screen car display shows
220-240 wh/mi at the car/battery which doesn’t include
10 matches
