If you're getting 190 miles per kWh, I want your EV.

I think you probably mean Wh/mile, not miles/kWh.

I think you mean energy, not power.  :-)

I'm not sure that I understand what the further complications are.  As far 
as I can see, it should be just simple math.  The  energy use measured at 
the motor should be the same as the energy consumed at the battery, minus 
some percentage for losses in the controller, which will vary with 
conditions, but can be averaged.  Am I missing something?
