He said that they had to put really big brakes on it. I guess for some reason you can't just have a clutch. Personally if I was going for eco I'd want something more clever than "bigger brakes" but maybe building something like a Hybrid Synergy Drive is harder than building a turbine.

He's got a ton of old cars that have been modified to have very good, modern disc brakes. The EcoJet is just one of many examples of his cars that have been improved in this way.
