Small engine, electric supercharger for the less than 1% when you need more power, and a launch assist rear axle for regenerative energy capture, and P&G lower speed cruising.
Mileage benefits of a hybrid without the complexity and cost.
I wonder if GM did this to save their financial arses, or if they were just dumb enough to find it out by ignoring their fundamentally flawed research and development.
