Interesting.

Well, I'd be quite curious to see how it would perform if the driveline was more similar to the Prius' HSD instead of a serial-hybrid. Emissions certification for the engine also got me thinking, because that engine was originally meant for motorcycles and they're certified into less stringent emission standards (IIRC it's currently Euro 4).
