5. How do you come to that conclusion?

"Assuming this cost, it is less expensive to run electric car on aluminum than ICE / gasoline car."

I'd like to see the math on that, since the article doesn't exactly say how many miles per kg such a car would get. It only discusses miles per liter of aluminum powder.
