Perhaps that is good.
However, to make a strong statement to the average ICE owner, a
different comparison might be more effective. I question how many people
really care how much heat is generated and wasted. Given that the ICE is
not very efficient when running at low RPMs and, further, that the
automatic clutch is adding some resistance, the fuel economy is terrible
when stopped and running AC. If you, or someone, can come up with some
numbers showing just how bad that is, I think more people would listen.

Subject: Re: [EVDL] EV AC cooling efficiency vs ICE
Id say the Prius is not the most common ICE, but a great input!
Would you be OK if I changed my conclusion to something like this "The BEV
can provide the same cooling with more than ten times less total heat
generated by an ICE depending on the vehicle chosen Maybe 4 times less
compared to a highy efficient Prius hybrid with electric heatpump or 15
times less than a big SUV or pickup with belt driven compressor."
Just looking for a simple comparison...
