EVs suddenly don’t get good fuel economy?

[–] PugJesus@kbin.social 27 points 2 years ago (7 children)

I mean, with EVs, you compare the economy to other EVs.

The cybertruck would use, according to at least one estimate, about 350 Wh/km, which puts it as the least efficient EV (including an old source). Compares to about an F-150 Lightning.

The Hummer has 419 Wh/km, or worse, so even with that estimate it wouldn't be the worst.

[–] uis@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

That's a lot. Looked up numbers for high-speed rail: for passangers minimum is 29Wh/km/sest in Japan and maximum is 41Wh/km/seat for Eurostar, for freight it's between 315Wh/km/t and 525Wh/km/t. Again, this is for high-speed rail at least 300km/h. For slow speed train(for example 90km/h) this will go much, much lower. Probably something between 30 and 100Wh/km/t.

Man I need those numbers converted to mi/kwh

Darn that's less than half of what I get

If it's a new car, then it's less efficient than your old car. This is still true (or possibly even more true) for electric cars.

Does T-14 have a glass window that supposedly bulletproof?

[–] PugJesus@kbin.social 38 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Yes but please don't let a weedy exec tap it lightly with a hammer

[–] Steeve@lemmy.ca 30 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I think the cybertruck looks cool but I'm also really into N64 graphics

[–] blazeknave@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Wish I could claim credit, but I stole it from Old NCD

[–] crackajack@reddthat.com 13 points 2 years ago (1 children)

T-14 is still pretty cool. I'd like to see it blown up!

[–] PugJesus@kbin.social 6 points 2 years ago

Let's see if it's a better competitor at the Turret Toss Championship!

[–] PersnickityPenguin@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

The check should actually get really good mpge, particularly compared to a tank.

[–] uis@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago

Doesn't look like captured during WW2 tank, so no on bottom-right.
