Come on ArenaEV... comparing a Citroën E-C3 with a ID.7 is like comparing apples with pears. I understand the point that you want to make buy this comparison is unnecessary in my eyes.

941km on a standard 86 kWh mediocre pack. Where's the solid state batteries, heck where is the semi solid state battery, to bring the actual 941km, not driving less than 30km/h.

I highly doubt that Escalade would do 29km/h with fuel consumption of 3,5L/100km (I think Prius could use 7 L/100km if the speed is above 140km/h). The ice is usually more efficient toward a bit higher speeds with bigger gears. Above 60km/h the drag coefficient starts to increase the consumption more dramatically. Wouldn’t about 60km/h be the sweet pot for an ice car and a reference point for the comparison?

" A V8 Escalade driven at 18 mph will use half the fuel Prius will at highway speed"

Actually, no.

Tesla model 3 went farther using less energy almost in 2018.
Nice, but not really impressed.
