Did you see some specs on it? I didn't. 30kw (40hp) engine making 22kw sounds like a 27% loss before powering traction motors or etc, real "winner"
I think it is kinda stupid though, plug in hybrid is the right all-around tool, range extender is a "show my EV car off in other cities" tool, but still they automate so much in hybrids that it is hard to realize their full efficiency potential.
