DOE: EV's are 87%–91% Efficient vs Gas at best 30% ft 2025 is the year of the Million Mile Battery in the Tesla Semi, Cybertruck & CyberCab (TeslaLeaks.com)
Tesla Has Won: Electric Vehicles Batteries Outlast Vehicles. First, a study shows EV batteries degrade just 1.8% yearly, the best batteries just 1% or less; meaning they can last a lifetime.
September 16th 2024 The U.S. department of energy responds to my post in 2022 citing the efficiency between a gas car and an EV. The DOE stated that an EV with regenerative breaking is 87-91% efficient from battery to motor. A gas car motor is 30%, at best. Older gas motors are 15-25% efficient. That's a 3-4X gain in efficiency using an EV motor. However, round trip from oil well to refinery to gas station to the in-efficient gas motor is 2% efficient overall. That's a 40X gain in efficiency with an EV. Not including the massive destruction caused by oil and gas nor the $7 Trillion in subsidies. https://www.energy.gov/eere/vehicles/articles/fotw-1360-sept-16-2024-typical-ev-87-91-efficient-compared-30-conventional

March 6th 2022 Electric Cars vs Gas Efficiency by Chris Edwards https://teslaleaks.com/f/oils-desperate-move-to-7gal-ft-electric-cars-vs-gas-efficiency
Gasoline, Propane or Bio-Fuels have a 2% Round Trip Efficiency:
Before you can begin, you must do an expedition to find the oil or gas by drilling holes and blowing them up with dynamite. Then, you can setup the site to: 1) Acquire land for oil pump-jacks 2) Build pump-jack 3) Power pump-jack 4) Build oil and gas tanker trucks, pipelines and rail lines 5) Pick-up and deliver oil to refinery 6) Build refinery 7) Power refinery 8) Over-build roads and bridges to deliver gas 9) Deliver gas to gas station 10) Build gas station 11) Power gas station 12) Use gas and time to goto gas station 13) Burn the gas in a 20% efficient gas motor 14) Repair 75% if roads broken by gas and oil tankers 15) Clean water poisoned by gas and oil 16) 6 football fields per minute of forests clear-cut and animals murdered for Corn Ethanol production 17) 1 Billion pounds of Corn/Wheat/Soy burnt in your gas tank per year, just in the U.S. 18) Murder 1 Million people per year when your gas car, oil tankers or refineries explodes 19) Murder 100 Million people in Wars to steal oil 20) Poison everything in sight with gas, oil and petrochemicals 21) Get Cancer and Birth Defects from gas additives like Techron 23) 1.5M dead people per year from Smog 24) $7 Trillion in subsidies per year for fossil fuels. That's just to start! )) Equals less than a 2% efficiency round-trip at a subsidized price of $10-$20 per gallon. You have to pay that too!!
EV's have a 75%-85% Round-Trip Efficiency
February 16th 2021 Understanding Nikola Teslla's 95.5%-99.5% efficient, 20,000+ RPM, 60 Lb, 528+ HP, Nikola Tesla A/C induction motor of 1888 in the Tesla Model S PLAID with the rotor wrapped in Carbon Fiber that lasts Indefinitely. It's a Million Hour Motor.
The DC-AC inverter between the battery and motor in the Tesla Model S is >98% efficient.
The Nikola Tesla (wound coil capacitor) "jelly roll" battery is >99.9% efficient per full charge cycle.
If the power comes from a long distance A/C hydroelectric plant or renewable energy, the loss is 2% every 100 miles with an average of 5% loss.
If the battery is DC supercharged or by wireless inductive coil charging by the road itself, it's >95-98% efficient.
That's approximately 84% efficient, round trip. Matching the DOE estimate. Elon Musk reported that using the average power source in the U.S. for charging, it's 75-80% efficient. https://www.energy.gov/eere/vehicles/articles/fotw-1360-sept-16-2024-typical-ev-87-91-efficient-compared-30-conventional

Tesla has already confirmed, it's 300-500K miles on the early and low end cars, 500-800K on the S & X, some over 1M. The Semi, Cybertruck and CyberCabs are projected to go over 1M, with the Semi having a 1M mile drivetrain warranty. At least a half dozen other Million Mile Batteries or 1M Kilometer warranty's, have been announced, are in cars now, and ready for production for 2025-2027.

Tesla Has Won: Electric Vehicles Batteries Outlast Vehicles. First, a study shows EV batteries degrade just 1.8% yearly, the best batteries just 1% or less; meaning they can outlast the car. No need to replace them, especially with a 100,000-mile warranty. Next, legacy automakers are delaying their EV plans, asking for looser carbon limits. Lastly, can EVs revive the affordable car market in the US?

May 13th 2024 Korean researchers New electric car battery is claimed to recharge in seconds. The result was a completely new type of sodium battery consisting of iron sulphide particles embedded in carbon and graphene. Following tests of the sodium battery over 5,000 charge and discharge cycles, data showed that it could obtain an energy density of up to 250 Wh/kg and supply power at a rate of 34,748 Wh/kg. This means that the battery can apparently hold more energy relative to its weight than existing sodium-ion batteries - and charge up to 100 times faster than other EV batteries. https://scienceillustrated.com/technology/new-electric-car-battery-is-claimed-to-recharge-in-seconds

March 20th 2024 We rely heavily on lithium batteries – but there's a growing array of alternatives.
