But communications technologies have yet to yield equivalent economies of scale.
Come spring, Ford will cap the midsize lineup with the Fusion Energi, a plug-in hybrid whose gas-equivalent economy rating should top 100 m.p.g.e., surpassing the less-roomy Toyota Prius plug-in and the Chevrolet Volt.
It had the equivalent fuel economy of 68 m.p.g.
So, if a Nissan Leaf uses, say, 300 watt-hours to travel a mile, then its equivalent fuel economy in petrol terms would be 112mpg.Of course, that represents only the energy stored in the vehicle's battery, not what is drawn from the plug still less what has to be generated at the power station to deliver that level of performance over the grid to the car.
After the Manhattan Project's triumph in 1945 an equivalent civilian economy project during the postwar years was building nuclear plants.
In July 2010, GM explained that their estimate was based on a formula that had not been officially approved and that they had been awaiting the EPA's decision on how the equivalent fuel economy of plug-in hybrids would be estimated.
Additionally, differences in GE (or its equivalent, running economy) have been shown to account for differences in cycling (Lucia et al. 2002) and running (Foster and Lucia 2007; Ingham et al. 2008) performance, particularly in athletes matched for high VO2max.
Income (as well as reference points of median income and poverty line) is made equivalent for economies of scale by dividing family income by the square root of family size.
Under its five-cycle testing, the US EPA rated the American 2012 model year Mitsubishi i with a combined fuel economy equivalent of 112 MPGe (2.1 L/100 km), with an equivalent 126 mpgus in city driving and 99 mpgus on highways.
(the electric equivalent of fuel economy).
The XL1 is said to achieve the fuel economy equivalent of more than 260 m.p.g.
