The new standards require American automakers to increase fuel economy so that, across their product lines, their passenger vehicles would average 65 miles per gallon by 2031, up from 48.7 miles today. The average mileage for light trucks, including pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles, would have to reach 45 miles per gallon, up from 35.1 miles per gallon. Selling electric vehicles and hybrids would help bring up the average mileage per gallon across their product lines.
0.362 Liters per 10 km
Beep boop I’m not a bot, might be incorrect.
We (Canadians) use L/100km more often.
A hybrid sedan might get 3 to 4 L/100km in ideal Canadian conditions using a lot more of the battery, closer to 5 in winter.
Your normal sedan ranges from 5 to 8. (40MPG = 7 L/100km)
An SUV ranges from 8 to 13. (25MPG = 10.9L/100km)
A pick up truck will be from 9 to 16 L/100km. (20MPG = 13.9L/100km)
Good but does anyone outside the US even use equivalent gasoline volume to measure electrical energy? Ergo, how much is that in kWh/100 km?
Well that’s impractical bc you have to know the kWh/litre or gallon if what kind of gas/diesel/E85/… you use.

Umm… I don’t? I pay for electricity in kWh. This is about electric cars.
I think the point is that EVs are at 0L/100km, therefore lowering the average.
I thought the regulators count their energy consumption in the weird, ambiguous unit of “gasoline gallon equivalent” = 33.4 to 33.7 kWh.
