Miles per gallon converted to miles per kWh

You think Your car drives with gasoline and has nothing to do with kWh. But CCPP combined cycle power plants can convert gasoline by 58% efficiency to electric power.

  Gasoline Diesel
Chemical energy per litre 8.9 9.8
CCPP can produce electric power per litre 5.16 5.68
Chemical energy per US gallon 33.7 37.1
CCPP can produce electric power per US gallon 19.5 21.5


With this values, You can convert Your MPG values for gasoline or Diesel to miles per kWh, based on the electric power, a CCPP could produce out of the fuel.
MPG gasoline city traffic
MPG gasoline highway
MPG Diesel city traffic
MPG Diesel highway
A typical medium sized plug-in hybrid has about 4 miles per kWh.
A small car about 5 miles per kWh.
The LOREMO reaches even 10 miles per kWh.

But there is even a bigger difference than miles per kWh alone. The prices for fossile fuel are going straight in the sky. The prices for photovoltaic declines. A gasoline car remains always a gasoline car. A plug-in hybrid can drive in the electric range with electricity from any source. We are already after the turning point where photovoltaic is cheaper than gasoline.
