Improving Alternator EfficiencyMeasurably ReducesFuel CostsBYMIKE BRADFIELD, MSMERemy, Inc.

Interesting paper. Well worth a read:
https://www.delcoremy.com/documents/...ite-paper.aspx

Then I tried a search for "efficient alternator".
EVERY Alibaba seller has an alternator thats "super duper ultra extlemely velly -velly efficient!", as does the rest of the world.
Anyone found a legit source??

Astro Flight 3220 motors,designed for high-end RC models are 92% efficient, weigh 5lbs, and can put out up to 15-HP each (11,000-Watts)

With the right ctlr they should turn into motors during acceleration, that help fuel economy too.

Here's 2 of them on a trike:
