As mentioned EM and VW have nothing to do with each other. Therefore the
following
Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't the following be 4.4em if 2.2vw is
added to the font-size of 2.2em ?
calc( 2.2em + 2.2vw );.

Mr Crest,
As others have already said: `em` units and `vw` units have NOTHING, I
repeat, NOTHING, to do with each other.
(also, if you don’t mind, please take the time to trim your replies to
this list)
Philippe

When using vw/vh em are always going to be doubled ? What about pixels ?
For example; 2em is equal to 4vw. Also
If the default font size is 16 pixels and if |2vw| is 2% of the
viewport’s width ?

I haven’t used these new units, but according to
https://www.w3.org/TR/css3-values/#lengths 'vw’ is "1% of viewport’s
width and ’vh’ is "1% of viewport’s height”. As ’ems’ are not related
to the viewport ”size" at all, then I’d say you can never say what you
suggest with any useful certainty, unless you somehow set the basic
font size in relation to the viewport size.
Once you’ve set the basic font size for a page, you can use ems or any
other relative size unit to change the size for a contained element.
That’s if you’ve reset the element specific relative sizes provided by
the browser itself somehow. Typically sizes are inherited, but HTML
elements also have specific relative sizes in most browsers.

Speaking of which, can someone once again clarify, for example; 2.2em
would equal 4.4vw ?

Sorry, that's just the typical way I hear of these types of things.
Newsletters or this list mainly.
