Miles Per Kilowatt Hour




Turn on your television and odds are you will see at least one car commercial within 15 minutes of viewing. In fact, odds are you will see 4 or 5 car commercials, each of which emphasizes the miles per gallon the featured model achieves on average. Given today’s escalating gasoline costs, this shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone. Reducing costs at the pump is an issue for all consumers right now, and the automotive industry is merely catering to their needs.

But with emerging technologies paving the way for the hybrid automobiles, and then soon electric automobiles, how will American consumers calculate mileage costs in tomorrow’s automotive market? When a vehicle’s average miles-per-gallon rating is no longer relevant, what will be the new way to calculate an automobile’s cost efficiency?

Since the industry is moving toward electric automobiles, we will soon replace MPG ratings with CPM ratings, or cost-per-mile ratings. That is because electricity obviously isn’t measured in terms of gallons, but in terms of kilowatts. Thus, we can safely assume that an automobile’s average miles per kilowatt rating will be the new standard rating with which we determine the model’s cost efficiency. Basically, consumers will be working with the same ratios they are now, the ratios will simply feature alternative variables. Cars are becoming more efficient because Americans want the most efficient vehicles available. This will remain constant even when calculating miles per kilowatt used an hour instead of miles per gallon.
