This will very much be an inevitable direction long term, in part due to a government’s perception that electricity is better. Studies are still far from conclusive based on life-cycle considerations.
Our (positive) experience will very much depend on the level of electrification and the technology employed. At the core can still be a pure M car complemented with the positive properties of electric motors. |

well it'd also be ridiculous to assume that a hybrid m-car would in any way resemble a prius. my point is that we don't need to get all worked up about hybrid technology when clearly it can perform at the highest levels.

We can only hope a hybrid setup would allow the return of high-revving naturally aspirated engines a la Porsche 918 Spyder (9150 RPM 4.6L V8).

Yeah and I'll be creating high quality recordings of Mezger flat-6 engines, Shelby flat-plane crank V8's, Lamborghini and AM V12's and selling them together with loudspeakers and suction cups.
None of you fuckers steal my idea! Running to the patent office now... |
