Best motor is the 5 cylinder Audi at 43%. Best IC engine pushing 56%. Best natural gas power plant turbine turbine with exhaust heat recovery additional generation is pushing 60-65%.

Make your comparisons realistic, like Christ suggested and include every sequential loss. You know like transmission losses. Jesus the Leaf only got 85% of the metered energy in the battery.

I guess the new reality will be if you ignore enough facts and omit relevant information, then your newly redesigned facts become facts in and of themselves.

How novel a thought process, lets ignore reality, physics, and Carnots Law while we are at it.
