What is missing in this chart is BTU's per pound therefore it is over simplified.

Also some of the gaseous fuels mentioned require heavy pressure vessels and the electric vehicles require heavy batteries. It takes HP to accelerate and to climb hills. Extra weight is counter productive.

Not to mention the natural resource use and recycling cost of the batteries.

This site is not the big picture.
