The fuel efficiency of an engine is not a constant. At high throttle settings economy is sacrificed for power. ie the grams of fuel used per horsepower hour increases. That is why infinite ratio transmissions would be worthwhile. And ideally - lossless.

Here's a discussion thread with links to graphs of the gm/kWh for a

throttle position. The VW TDI is one of the best small engines from
what I understand, peaking at under 200 grams/kWh.

If your throttle control is nothing more than a request for more or less powerAND there is a correlation between a demand for power and a demand for fuel
