This is disingenuous. If you’re going to consider losses from fuel to power, you should be doing the same for EVs. After considering losses in generation, transmission, and charging, they are roughly equal.
A reminder: ICE vehicles waste a whopping 80% of energy in their fuel.
EVs are propelled by entirely different mechanisms. Energy enters the vehicle as electricity, which directly powers the drivetrain making it 3-4x more efficient.

How is Bondi not being held in contempt for trying to dodge nearly every question asked to her yesterday? That was one of the most pathetic displays I’ve ever seen. Trying to talk smack in a hearing like that just makes them look even guiltier. Everyone in this administration needs to be locked up.

EV fanbois trying not to be disingenuous, challenge level impossible
An EV = high-tech computer on wheels — software-defined, upgradable, efficient. ICE = clunky remnant of the combustion era — mechanical, wasteful, capped by physics. One evolves with code & batteries. The other peaked last century. Soon, ICE won’t be a debate -> but something in rear-view mirror.

They’re interested in the cheap cars - the EV part is irrelevant.
Not only will they be getting more affordable cars, but they also get to watch as their neighbors to the south get green with EV envy.
