[the anti-liberal]

For a comparison of E and G to be meaningful the cost of conversion (in this case - in other’s the cost and production of batteries, etc.) ought be taken into account.

True, but in this case, the economy of scale (for EV) are not there yet, so I don't know if it is a fair comparison. The tech is still changing and advancing.

But on thing is true, the E motor is more efficient than it's gas counter part in converting its energy into work.
