Personally, i'm not buying into a supercar that has batteries just yet. They're usually heavier, lose capacity over time, and are expensive to make in terms of resources. Porsche have a flywheel unit in one of their development racers, but what you save in weight, you lose having to convert the energy twice, from mechanical to electical, and back to mechanical again. Much prefer the lotus solution of a reletively small engine purely driving a generator to turn the wheel motors, near constant rpm and low fuel consumption, but with fancy torque vectoring and that max torque from standstill capability of straight electrical drive.

 

Otherwise, the good:
