i was thinking more along the line of a larger alternator and electric motor. something along the 96v if possable. the alternator would never be able to keep up with the motors supply needs , just help in keeping the batteries drain too fast. if they start running out then i could always disconnect the electric motor and place the transmission back in drive. this would charge the batteries fully. i don't know if this would really work out but it would allow a longer driving range than with a battery only power source.
