It makes much more sense to have a light easy to park EV for the majority of your driving around town and to use the ICE pusher when you occasionally need to go highway. What is the advantage of the reverse?
Huh?

[EDIT] Oh, I get it. I was thinking you were both trying to say the same thing. It would be neat to reverse-hybridize the Flea to help it's fuel mileage even more!!! Batteries will move you more efficiently, but can't take you far enough outside of the city.
