    What if the generator was inside the front of the car - and only turned on when the battery was low? Wait, I’ve just re-invented the hybrid.

      Yeah okay but almost nobody is making Plug-in Hybrids and they cost an absolute fuck ton of money.

      You also don’t need the generator for 99% of rides so you can remove it to reduce costs.

      Look at the new “Ram Charger” that works like you describe. It’s 60k and for whatever reason needs a 600hp engine and a full electric engine.
