Ken, thanks for the link.Ii did find it and your excellent site.
At first, i was thinking that the suspension fairing was a bit clumsy looking, but, as i watched the video, i decided that it is a beautiful car.
I kind of agree with Frank about direct ICE drive, but, understand your reasoning.
Perhaps there is a way to have both a series and parallel hybrid.
My idea is mount the ICE in the rear so it can have the generator hanging off one side and a clutch out the other side to a direct chain drive to the rear wheel.
Such a system could run just as you have designed and engage the clutch for constant highway cruising. It should add little complexity, weight or cost. I think it would give you a considerable gain in highway cruising mileage.
