What power is expended against sea-level air drag


Discuss the below problem in detail:

Q: For those who think electric cars are sissy, Keio University in Japan has tested a 22-ft long prototype whose eight electric motors generate a total of 590 horsepower. The oKaz cruises at 180 mi/h (see Popular Science, August 2001, p. 15). If the drag coefficient is 0.35 and the frontal area is 26 ft2, what percent of this power is expended against sea-level air drag?
