Mazda is supposedly making a MX-30 R-EV, which has a extending rotary engine in it. At 74HP though the rotary probably can act as a full-series generator. https

I was hoping there'd be a much smaller rotary creatively tucked away somewhere, but this is a fairly conventional car design & there's a big old engine bay with the rotary taking up a bunch of space.
- Turskarama 3y agoThis is close to what I'm after, though in a smaller car than the MX-30. Rotaries are a good choice for this since they're very compact, but 74HP still seems excessive to me.
- fomine3 3y agoWhat's the reason you want a very small HP engine? Isn't it compact enough?
