I was on the phone with my brother, suggesting when these are on the market he replace the front brakes in his 1946 Ford pickup—with no batteries, just capacitors. Stock Ford flathead drivetrain and rear brakes with a Kinetic Energy Recovery System.

Maybe 200lb added less the weight of the stock front brakes.
