In an aftermarket hybrid conversion aimed to FWD cars I'd always consider more suitable to provide the electric auxiliary drive to the rear axle, since it would deliver 2 main dynamic advantages: would provide better traction for higher-speed cornering and also compensate for the different weight balance which would come due to the extra weight of the battery packs.
