It looks ugly as sin though.
It is my opinion that the current generation of supercars (not to mention hypercars) not only exceeds the driver skills but also the driver's ability to properly function for 7-10 days after bringing said supercar to the limit.
Makes sense to have both the V12 and a small electric motor because the rich folks would buy the car for the option (but not the obligation) to use the V12 but in reality it's gonna be the electric motor doing all the work while proceeding at 7mph around Harrods/Piccadilly or the Burj Khalifa. I think the environment can handle a couple of V12 revs per week when rich folks get out of Harrods.
- hoofhearted 4y agoI don’t think you have a good understanding of the hybrid systems running in Hypercars compared to a Prius. For example, the battery system in the new AMG-ONE is not there for fuel economy. Instead it is used to assist the drivetrain in creating maximum power with minimum lag. The turbo and crankshaft are assisted by the battery system on the low end rpms.
