there is an unopened can of worms here
if what i think this is, i.e. a system to collect the backward energy from braking, or in simpler words, when you brake the brakes are wasting energy such as heat, and the g force accelearation that results can be used in some method to create energy, but in the form of eelctricity, which can be stored in a battery
will this mean smaller standard batterires, and the extra electicity needed comes from these systems
or will it mean that the secondarty energy batetry will be coupled to the transmission essentially making these cars hbrids?
