Jerry, do you have a source for the 7% number? I would like to have some data on that. I've generally heard 20% - 30%. The only data I have is my car with an ice got about 35 mpg, or ~960Wh/mile, and as an ev uses about 200 Wh/mile. If I guesstimate 80% efficient as an ev then it was about 17% efficient with the ice. That's with no loads such as AC, entertainment centers, etc, in both cases. Those things lower the mpg in many modern cars, but don't change the ice efficiency.
