Absolutely. The first 'modern' example of this that I'm aware of was done on a Subaru Justy (awd!?!), but that guy just proved the concept and moved on to the next sparkly idea. There is a kit from NetGain Technologies for vehicles with OBDII called the
EMIS that uses a
TransWarp motor- made for direct-drive applications.
I'm only aware of one hobbyist who built this, and his results were not impressive.
Hybrid Conversion
Doing it with an AC motor like the
AC50 should double the impact or better through adding regen to the equation...
