For example, when Ford says the F-150 Lightning will get 2 miles per kWh, it's per kWH that it pulls from the battery, not per kWh in AC you drew from your house to convert to DC then store in the battery then pull out of the battery to drive with. My home solar system has a 96% round trip efficiency of pulling in DC power, storing it to batteries, pulling it back out of batteries when my house needs power, then converting it to AC for my house to use.
I’ve never had a hybrid before so had no idea what to expect. All i can say is it’s quite smooth - and gets good mileage for a car of that size.
It’s all wheel drive - I did have one problem in January when it wouldn’t go up an icy hill (in Seattle area). Brother in law thought it was my tires but it also kept going into an anti-skid mode. We worked around it - I love it anyway.
You are one of the few persons, I have found, who has posted about the power losses in the Electric Vehicle system. You have described an energy loss of about 16% from the wall power to the battery during charging. It is a power loss to consider when that electricity is being generated by fossil fuels.
There is one other power loss in this system that is forgotten: the electric transmission losses from the generation source. Since the Green Weenies want solar and wind, such sources will be located in areas far from their destination. Large land masses and the noise of wind generation are most likely found in remote areas. The distances traveled by the transmission lines will have power losses, also added to the use power losses:
Different power is lost at different stages:
1-2% of energy is lost during the step-up transformer from when the electricity is generated to when it is transmitted.
2-4% of energy is lost in the transmission lines
1-2% of energy is lost during the step-down of the transform from the transmission line to distribution.
4-6% of energy is lost during the distribution
The average loss of power between the power plant and consumers ranges between 8-15%. Things add up.
