The efficiency figures for a steam-powered car are questionable - compare the efficiency figures given in the Steam Engine article. When quoting figures, a verifiable source should always be given so that the figures can be checked.


...without addons. With addons... What does the author mean by addons? This needs to be explained or dropped, IMHO. For example, if a condensor for a steam engine is considered an addon, then I would argue that electronic fuel-injection (as opposed to a mechanical carburetor) should be considered an addon as well.
