Turtle EV + Gas Generator = Hybrid?

When my crx engine dies I might EV it
(now where have we heard that one before)


But my friend brought up an interesting point
which I dont exactly have all the answers for.


Can you put a small generator in the back and power it off that?

Will it work when its running or does the current need to be off for it to run?


It would be mostly used as a fallback. Going too far and draining the battery.
No need to tow back


Its just nice for someone to be asking questions. Means theyre interested.
