it is funny because gasoline holds a lot more energy by mass than batteries, but combustion engines are far less efficient than electric motors.
The numbers are kind of interesting.
EV batteries are approaching 2 kWh per gallon (3.75 Litre), or about 6 - 8 miles travel
ICE travel between 10 - 50 mpg. The US passenger fleet averages about 20 mpg and consumes about 40 kWh of source energy per gallon
So an ICE consumes 20x the heat energy to travel 3x further, or about 7x more heat energy than EV per distance
