I used to know a businessman, who passed away some months ago, and once he owned a hybrid Volvo S60, with that twincharged engine. Not only as the supercharged decreased turbo-lag, it was also decoupled around 2000 RPM, but he was also quite lead-footed, so he would often speed up. The last car I saw him driving was an electric Volvo XC40.
