I take it you mean watt-HOURS per mile. My Solectria Force typically
uses 150-225 wh/mile, depending on weather, speed, and terrain. The
lower figure is for very steady (few stops) 35-40 mph driving on the flat
in fair weather.
The Force is a fairly light vehicle (2100 lb) with AC drive and
regenerative braking, so this may be a little lower than the typical EV.
