Conversion to a hybrid seems more complicated, not less.
They’re adding a bunch of weight to the rear wheels - I’m sure that’s going to effect things? How does it trade-off with the ICE smoothly? How much per model customization is needed?
It’s an interesting idea - but there are a lot of details being left out…
I drive an '07 ICE pickup. Would adding a battery / motors to it for the remaining 5ish years of its life really be worth the impact to the environment for those batteries just to save a bit of fuel over that time period?
