I can only find mean energy produced.
If I have used i.e. 10 liters of gasoline in 100 km, as 1 liter of gasoline produce about 10 kWh of energy, that means at efficiency 25% 2.5*10 kWh = 25 kWh mean en.used by my car

How does a car get power?
A car gets its power from the engine, or the motor.
Do American car companies measure horsepower at the wheels?
yes, all companies do Whoa whoa whoa. they do not. American car companies measure horsepower at the flywheel of the engine on an engine dyno, not at the wheels on a rolling road dyno. There is a significant power loss to get the horsepower from an engine all the way to the tires through the transmission.
Why did they change horsepower to cc?
Nobody changed horsepower to cc. Horsepower is a measure of the power of things, including car engines, cc is a measure of the internal size of the engine and is only remotely related to power. A better tuned or better designed engine of the same cc will be more powerful.
What is torque of an car engine?
the bottom part of the car is it A: Torque is grunt, the pulling power of the engine, measured in Horse power.
What exactly does a dynamometer measure?
A dynamometer measures force, torque, and power. It can be used to measure the power of an engine.
What does cc in car engine mean?
cubic centimeters. its a measure of engine displacement.
What does a dipstick in a car measure?
The depth of the engine oil.
What is car engine called?
Motor,Power plant,
What is the difference between horse power and RPM and does RPM measure torque and if not how is torque measured?
DynoRpms is revolutions per minute. How many times the engine turns a complete cycle. Torque is measured at the rear wheels(if were talking about a rear wheel drive car). Torque is the true power of an engine. If you have alot of horse power and low torque, the working power of the engine underload will be awful. The best way to measure and only true way is to Dyno the engine
Which tool can you use to measure how much oil to add to a car engine?
The engine dipstick is the only tool you can use to measure how much oil is in the engine.
What does kw in car engine means?
A kilowatt is the metric unit for power. A horsepower is the Imperial unit for the same thing. So there's absolutely no reason why a kilowatt shouldn't be used to measure the output power of a car engine in the same way that a horsepower was. In fact, outside the US, most countries rate their car engines in kilowatts not in horsepower.
How much horsepower in liters does a formula car have?
Horsepower is not measured in litres. Litres is a measure of engine displacement, not power. Power is roughly proportional to displacement, but also varies with many other factors.
