minus-square@Staccato@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink6•9 months agoA gallon of gas contains 33.7 kWh of energy. ICE sedans get on average 31.7 miles per gallon, which is 0.94 miles per kWh. Most electric SUVs get 3-4 miles per kWh depending on temperature and driving conditions. Electric sedans get 4-5 miles per kWh. You may generally dislike SUVs, but those Electric SUVs are still a far cry better than the gas sedans you’re giving a pass.

minus-square@lazylion_ca@lemmy.calinkfedilink1•9 months agoAmericans have actually been using metric for a long time. Well, their drug dealers have anyway.
