How many calories does it take to move this car? Looks like we have about 99,000,000 calories total available in those 3 gallons...now...if we take the more pessimistic value and use 30 gallons...then we have 999,000,000 calories. Now, if it is supposed to take 100,000 calories to jog a mile...we can jog about 10,000 miles for the same energy (at 100% efficiency).
Still seems WAAYYY too efficient, eh?
Wonder what is not really being told in the press releases??
