25kW for motor running a car at about 35-40mph.

More like 2 to 5 KW at a steady 35 to 40mph on the level...

So five miles will use about 8 minutes at 25kW.
That is about 3.4 kWHr.

Assume 5KW consumption and 35mph. That's 8.57 minutes which works out to
some 0.7KWH's worth of energy from the battery.


You haven't allowed for energy recovery by regeneration.


Yes I have, there isn't any unless you keep slowing and stopping.
Then it takes more to accelerate back to speed.

What there is is seriously exaggerated by greens too.


How would you know?
Obviously there are no hills where you live.
