An electric car and an internal combustion engined car of the same make and design otherwise would require the same amount of power to operate. An electric car is more efficient as the motor does not run unless it is required to push the car along. If the car is rolling of it's own inertia, no energy needs to be sent to the electric motor, but the ic motor requirs fuel to keep running. At traffic lights and stop lights, ic engines need to keep running or use energy to start up again.
