EVs suddenly don’t get good fuel economy?

    I mean, with EVs, you compare the economy to other EVs.

    The Tesla Cybertruck is estimated to get about 2.4 miles per kWh, or 415 watts per mile. In comparison, a Tesla Model 3 gets about 3.4 miles per kWh, or 290 watts per mile.

    That’s an estimate.

    Even so, that’s better than the F150 Lightning (1.9 mi/kWh) and the Rivian R1T (1.81 mi/kWh)

    So we're saying it does get good fuel economy?

    The cybertruck would use, according to at least one estimate, about 350 Wh/km, which puts it as the least efficient EV (including an old source). Compares to about an F-150 Lightning.

    That's a lot. Looked up numbers for high-speed rail: for passangers minimum is 29Wh/km/sest in Japan and maximum is 41Wh/km/seat for Eurostar, for freight it's between 315Wh/km/t and 525Wh/km/t. Again, this is for high-speed rail at least 300km/h. For slow speed train(for example 90km/h) this will go much, much lower. Probably something between 30 and 100Wh/km/t.

    Man I need those numbers converted to mi/kwh
