What Is MPGe? The New Fuel Efficiency Rating for Hybrids and EVs, Explained
10 Jan 2023 | Abstracted from PC Magazine
"Like miles per gallon (MPG), the higher the MPGe the better. It estimates a car's fuel efficiency, or how far it can go on a given quantity of fuel, whether the fuel is gasoline or electricity."A high MPGe on its own doesn't necessarily mean higher range...MPGe is a little tricky to think about because it's a measurement of a car's efficiency, not the distance it can travel. [24kWh Fiat 500e battery gives 121 MPGe, while 23kWh Aptera battery gives estimate of 367 MPGe].
