That's kind of what I was going to say, it really depends on how they decide to incorporate the system. It may add a bit of weight, but it could also make the car quite interesting. Now I realize this comparison is a bit over the top, but after watching videos of the 918 and P1, I can honestly understand and see the appeal of using a high-performance hybrid. My hope would be that they use a very compact and light system to supplement the car during hard acceleration and driving slowly.
