Where is the fledgling hybrid aftermarket?
Since hybrid vehicles are good for fuel economy and therefore the environment, and have good overall performance, where are the small companies that will convert your older ride from petro to hydro? It's a natural, people have been modifying factory vehicles extensively for most of the past century. Where is the hopped up car market based on hybrid technology? This would be a huge step forward environmentally.
The other question is, why aren't stirling cycle engines being tied in with combustible fuel engines to recover waste heat and further increase hybrid efficiency? Once you start using electrical power as your final drive train input, it seems very logical to me to increase overall efficiency and / or available power by tapping the heat energy normally shed to the atmosphere. I'd greatly like to hear more on both of these questions.
Thanks,
