Fact of the Week by the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE), U.S. Department of Energy: 🚗🔋 Did you know a typical electric vehicle (EV) is 87%–91% efficient, compared to only 30% for conventional combustion vehicles? With regenerative braking recovering about 22% of energy, EVs are paving the way for a more energy-efficient future. The shift to electric is reshaping how we move!
