I have a lot experience using the Mazda Skyactiv system, it fully charges in about 6 seconds of deceleration/braking in gear. I think the alternators are high output 12/24v switching. I can get good mpg gains by using it, adapting your driving to take advantage of it etc
Its basically a kinetic energy recovery system which is where the efficiency gains come from, using otherwise wasted energy & converting it into stored power that provides about 2-6 mins of power Dependant on whats switched on.
