who are the memeticists driving this analagy into our collective consciousness? why is this popularizing? ive been seeing this crop up more and more frequently.
it feels a bit like begging the question, except the arguer also holds TSLA
As you insist though, it's about the energy required to cycle 100,000 miles.
Fuel is far more energy dense for ICE engines are far far less efficient.
I don't get this comparison point as well, electronics is dwarfed compared to other far more energy intensive industries.
MPGe also touches on the source of the energy you are using to propel your car, and depending on your power grid energy mix, can produce quite widely different results for EVs. Once you also take into account transmission and conversion losses, it is not as good as you'd think.
Electronics is one of the most energy intensive industries in the world, especially if you do the calulcation per weight of final product.
