CanAm Hybrid

[Firefly]

Roll on performance is the big question... When I crack the throttle at 60mph and want to bump up to 80 for a quick pass.... is the power going to be there or is the hybrid only going to provide electric + gas acceleration from a stop?

Everything I've read is that it will have the same performance as our RS Spyders....this was of major importance on the project.

As for the sound.....my guess is that the gas engine will run at various times similar to a Prius.

Really curious to see how this all comes together.......

there are some other posts about the hybrid-spyder ..
I think thats specially for europe where some towns do not allow to drive a "normal" car/bike if the air is too dirty .. in the future you can visit also some national-parks here with a hybrid (also with the hybrid-skidoos - hybrid-seadoos !!)

so "sometimes" you have to ryde with "only" 25 Hps :yikes:


so.. its 100% the best engine Rotax have ever built in their history
