"On a self driving car, a 1000W machine for 3d lidar data crunching isn't really feasible."
How-so? That's 1.34 horsepower. Even assuming catastrophic losses in converting fuel to electrical power, say 90%, that's only 13.4 horsepower to generate 1000W.

Electrical car. You lose a lot of power like that. That translates into less range, and that's before you start redirecting air to cool it which will eat up even more range.
