I get it that they want to use electricity as the primary energy source for vehicles, and make all sort of fossil fuels non-viable options, but still curious - does "gas" generally means just/mostly gasoline, or applies to LPG as well? (Just that in my native tongue a word "benzin" is used for gasoline, and "gas" is always about propane/butane mixes.)

Americans refer to petrol/benzin when they say gas.

In American/Canadian parlance "gas" as discussing flammable fuel almost always means "gasoline" with exceptions like "gas main" or "gas canister" where it refers to "natural gas" (methane) or in the case of the canister, possibly propane, but usually people say "propane canister" or "propane tank" to be specific.
