Learn to read frank. x prize mpge isnt reasonable or usefull except for distorting numbers. Its totally incomplete and useless for making an informed decison on between a gas an electric vehicle. Maybe you like making distorted comparisons. Reality is that the price of electricty does vary , carbon footprints vary. If you wanted an average than the xprize mpge is so so far off the mark its just stupid. There are better averages. If you would rather people do their own individual conversions than there would be accuracy. The current mpge formula only applies when your defrosting your windows.
