I've already considered a hydraulic regen, using rotors mounted at the wheel hubs in a similar arrangement to the Yamaha 2-Trac system which was used in some of their dirt bikes.
But your willing to get an electric drive to the rear axle of your CR-V seems to be perfectly viable. There was recently a similar project in India, involving an electric motor which was been specially-developed to be mounted in the original spot where a driveshaft would be. I just don't remember where I found it
