I don't remember where I read it but it was about ten years ago that I first saw someone had covered a mile on less than 100Wh. I think it may have been a solar racer, so it's pretty tough to compare that to the shadetree conversion. I can't remember how fast the vehicle was going either, so it might have been going at Warp Factor Mosey. But still, that's not bad. Now scale it up and add some speed!
