Thanks. To dogpile on what a bad measure that was, I'd add another example:
A Tesla Plaid S is 1020HP.
Is it less efficient because the engine is oversized? Seemingly the opposite. It's 33kWh/mi compared to the nearby Performance S (with similar 21 inch wheelsizes). If we assessed miles*capacity/hp though, things would look incredibly dire & dark for the Plaid; the worst EV in production perhaps?
In general, engine output capacity doesnt really tell us much.
