Frequently asked questions

Miles per gallon equivalent compares an EV's efficiency to a petrol car. It uses the fact that a gallon of petrol holds about 33.7 kWh of energy.

Divide 3,370 by the kWh used per 100 miles. Using 30 kWh per 100 miles gives about 112 MPGe.

Regulators set this as the energy content of a gallon of petrol, so electricity and fuel can be compared on one scale.

Yes. Higher MPGe means the vehicle travels further on the same energy, just like higher MPG for a petrol car.
