It gives a consumption figure that looks like miles per watt hour which

Yes they seem to have that the wrong way around but 84Whr/mile is
impressive, given a litre of fuel has about 45kWhr/impgallon and
allowing about 30% thermal conversion to the wheels that would be in
the region of 300Whr/mile.
Mind you if thats 28 K to buy then thats all rather academic..

Especially as I haven't bought a new car since 1971, what does an
equivalent small car cost?

£8K upwards. And it won't need £4K worth of replacement batteries every
few years. And it will do over 200 miles without having to stop for the
night.
