“Hybridisation could help because of the CO2 [savings]. What’s also great with electric motors is the acceleration. We’re working on it, but we cannot go too expensive with technology.”

“If you go far enough out I think you’ll find the IC engine becoming less significant, one day potentially nothing more than a range extender. That’s the way the whole segment is moving.”

Mike Flewitt, CEO of McLaren, is thinking along similar lines although at another price point. He believes that in ten years, at least half of all McLarens will be hybrids.
