fuel economy Fuel cost to drive 25 miles Annual fuel cost (1) (15,000 mi) Notes Toyota Prius Prime [6] [89] 2017: Electricity (25 mi) 133 mpg-e (25 kWh/100 mi)-$0.82: $550: The Prius Prime is the most energy-efficient vehicle with a gasoline engine in EV mode. [90] During the first 25 mi might use some gasoline. [89] The 2017 Prime has a combined
Gasoline gallon equivalent (GGE) or gasoline-equivalent gallon (GEG) is the amount of an alternative fuel it takes to equal the energy content of one liquid gallon of gasoline. GGE allows consumers to compare the energy content of competing fuels against a commonly known fuel, namely gasoline. It is difficult to compare the cost of gasoline ...
Fuel economy is the distance travelled per unit volume of fuel used; for example, kilometres per litre (km/L) or miles per gallon (MPG), where 1 MPG (imperial) ≈ 0.354006 km/L. The higher the value, the more economic a vehicle is (the more distance it can travel with a certain volume of fuel). This measure is popular in the US and the UK (mpg ...
Fuel efficiency (or fuel economy) is a form of thermal efficiency, meaning the ratio of effort to result of a process that converts chemical potential energy contained in a carrier (fuel) into kinetic energy or work. Overall fuel efficiency may vary per device, which in turn may vary per application, and this spectrum of variance is often ...
The cost analysis was based on a typical mileage of 7,400 miles per year. Fuel costs were calculated using the current average prices of 182.3p per litre for petrol and 188.1p per litre for diesel.
The energy efficiency in transport is the useful travelled distance, of passengers, goods or any type of load; divided by the total energy put into the transport propulsion means. The energy input might be rendered in several different types depending on the type of propulsion, and normally such energy is presented in liquid fuels, electrical ...
The following table compares official EPA ratings for fuel economy (in miles per gallon gasoline equivalent, mpg-e or MPGe, for plug-in electric vehicles) for series production all-electric passenger vehicles rated by the EPA for model years 2015, [1] 2016, [2] 2017, [3] and 2023 [4] versus the model year 2016 vehicles that were rated the most efficient by the EPA with plug-in hybrid ...
