What is the benefit in using this scheme opposed to a gearbox? Is most efficient to use two electric motors (powered by the combustion engine through a generator) or use gears in a gearbox, but without the power penalty of the generator?
Is this more efficient than a gasoline drive system only if the energy to drive the electric motors come from an external source (the power grid, though the batteries)?
