New Z...hybrid

I feel hybrid technology is not optimized enough to put into an entry level sports car. hybrid system in a prius works well because its designed to be eco, and hybrid system in a p1 or 918 work well because it is highly advanced (and expensive) technology and purely for performance. if Nissan were to make a hybrid Z, their priority with the system will be to make the car more efficient, not necessarily to perform to maximum potential.

Nissan has what looks like is going to be the most successful electric car lineup in the world. It makes sense that they can put a cheap and reliable hybrid component into their sports cars. Torque-fill FTW!
