I promise it's very accurate unless you do serious design changes.
Tesla beats (Model S 350 Wh/m 5000lb car, Model 3 260Wh/m 4000Lb car) this but
I don't know of any others. Bolt EV says they get 290Wh/m with a 3500lb car.
This rule of thumb works great for conversions. You might beat it if you build
from the ground up bur it won't be like a modern car.

That's a good rule of thumb for typical cars. It will be different for
much smaller or much bigger vehicles, or vehicles that have efficiency
enhancements, or power wasters (silly tires, dragging brakes, bad
aerodynamics, etc.
