Got any links to support these claims? I'd be interested to know more for when people bring up the same argument as the person you're replying to.

Not OP but searched up EE's video on a topic like this. Been a long while since I watched it so I don't remember much about it in description is the sources. So at the very least you can check some of that type of stuff.

But yeah in general an ICE is horrendous at efficiency vs electric. An ICE blows some 70+% of its energy on making heat we don't use but instead actively use some of the available energy made to cool it.
