I like the idea of being able to start quietly and smoothly - without noise and wear to ring-gear and pinion etc. So even if it was able to start the engine and do regenerative braking that would be great....

But - what would be the cost of an aircraft type motor/generator?? Is the reason we haven't seen this done , down simply to cost?
