Now that is a fantastic idea.
We are currently developing a hybrid electric turbo here at our facility. Actually we are done and in the testing phase now.
It virtually eliminates turbo lag with the high speed electric motor that is integrated into the turbocharger.
Then while cruising, we are harvesting exhaust energy and storing it to be used again the next time you need instant spool up.
