The Lucid Air is lauded for efficiency BY Gordon Hrodda, Member of Denver Electric Vehicle Council. Efficiency can be expressed in miles per kilowatt-hour or kwh (common in US; higher is better), or kwh per mile (often done in Europe; lower is better). With a monster battery, efficiency can drop from 5 miles per kwh to around 3.
