This idea has been around for over 100 years.
Look at just a few issues.
1, They mention $3k. That wont pay for the batteries (Diablo iii Gold).
2, The claimed mileage, Does that include the weight of a production battery pack?
3, No mention at all of the computer needed to control the differential power to the wheels during turns.
4, And this has killed most of the other designs. Have you ever seen a film of ho hot a brake rotor or drum gets during heavy breaking? Its amazing how hot they get and how fast it gets hot. Now go look up the curie point of the PM magnets they use. We wont mention the fact that the heat will also fry the insulation in the windings.
5, The design they show is for drum brakes. Newer cars are all going to disk brakes (Diablo iii Gold).
6, The number one issue with any electric multi drive system is differential control be it one of our ROVs or the rovers on Mars or the bomb sniffing robots the cops have. Golf cart and warehouse truck makers have tried this for decades and keep going back to a single motor with differential drive.
Now the 100% claim is what I am calling BS on.
A gasoline motor powering an alternator that charges a battery that powers drive motors is not going to get a 100% improvement. I am willing to bet $$ that they are charging the battery from the grid when parked and using it ti supplement the gas power. That means they are replacing gasoline power with coal power (Diablo iii Gold) . That means their 100% cloaim applies ONLY to the gasoline. Not to the amount of actual ENERGY used.
