Electric front wheels is *way* too hard.

The "TransWarp" series of motors uses a TH700 output shaft. The shaft is also double-ended, meaning it can take an *input*. If you got a hold of the guys who make it, you might find out how much torque can be transmitted through it. If it's high enough, that's the mechanically simplest way of hybridising a car.
