Here in Mexico the BYD brand vehicles are everywhere and I’ve been in a few because their favored by a lot of UBER drivers.
I really cannot complain about the quality, smoothness of the ride, even in a pothole ridden city, and the driver loved the mileage (km-age?) per charge and the comfortable interior.
I was surprised af because I was ready to shit all over it when I saw it pull up.

For EVs you can say range instead of mileage.

Range doesn’t capture the concept of efficiency.that Op was getting at
It needs defining as kw per 100km or miles per kw, but then neither can be summed in a single word

I honestly assumed it meant range as a translation since I often hear people mean that as it’s the number 1 thing everyone asks/talks about. I’m in Europe and km countries say “consumption” or whatever local language equivalent (for the countries I know). The Brits say mileage. Whether it’s electricity or gas shouldn’t matter when talking about mileage though right, just a straight swap?
