      No, running engines at the limits makes things less efficient, which is why on fuel-limited tracks you see a lot of lift and coast and turning down engine modes when that was a thing.

      The efficiency comes from having two different complex energy recovery systems, which is what makes them expensive to transfer to the road.

      Still, you’d see more real world applications if countries’ carbon regulations were tighter.
