Oh really. It seems to contradict the graphics. Cars are also stupid efficient now. I also ran Dom quick calculations on my electric bike and it is crazy how many km*kWh⁻¹ you get and how little it cost to run.

I’ve heard about some research showing that an electric bike over it’s entire lifetime is more environmentally friendly than a traditional one because the amount of extra food you need to consume without the electric help is over time more co2 than the co2 it costs to charge the battery. I don’t know where the research is from since I just heard it from a colleague so don’t quote me on it, but electric motors are really efficient so it sounds very plausible to me.
