Hmm its about .1 kilowatt-hours per mile for a small EV

No way. Assume that applies at say 30mph (I'm not sure where the optimal would be, but that is a WAG). Then for 1 hour of driving you go 30 miles, and you claim to use 30 x 0.1KWHr = 3KWHr, which implies (since it takes 1 Hr) a power of 3KW or about 4 Horsepower. Power is power, so the same vehicle could do the same thing using a 4HP gasoline engine as well. Except I don't know of any small EV that could be driven 30mph on 4HP.
