While true, power plants are vastly more efficient then cars, it's just basic physics. The transmissions losses of an electrical grid are nothing compared to the losses of burning fuel to get it to the gas, the fuel you burn to get to the gas station, and finally the straight up losses of burning fuel period.
Moreover, cars cannot run on hydropower, wind, biomass, nuclear, or even coal it we go that way. Electricity generation can, and there is a lot of more coal in the ground than oil.
