Here is my take on the whole balancing of non hybrid with hybrid. As we saw with hybrid it's recovering wasted energy and turning back into either more speed on the same fuel burned or to go longer stints with the same speed. Even if the non hybrids had 24 hour-reliable 800-900 horsepower engines they are going to be gulping more fuel to make that horsepower. That's more refueling stops.. Some might say give them massive fuel tanks. Ok you but then they are saddled with a burdensome weight.... fuel is heavy! The challenge of balancing is enormous...maybe futile?
