Aside from as stated before, the wheels spend a considerable amount of time stopped, there is still the issue of power in = power out. Meaning, that a small amount of horsepower is used for the engine to turn the alternator. The same amount of power would also be used to turn a generator of sorts at the wheels.

I think it's the law of kinetic energy or Newton's Laws of Physics...
