^ wtf is wrong with this spammer lol

I dont think that supercars becoming hybrids are necessarily a bad thing but when it come to want or needs it just depends.

With the technology today i could see supercars revolutionizing to all hybrids simply because its more green technology and the amount of hp that a electric motor could make now is insane. As for good or bad, i could see a lot saying it will not be the same especially those petrol heads who are stubborn to try new things. Now the biggest question s the cost, this newly found technology does come with a price tag. If not we will have to wait for a while till something new or updated ones come out.

It's a bad move by the manufacturers I guess because it will affect the performance of the vehicle and you know what Hybrids don't have much life.

Many cars around this price range are moving to hybrids.

The electric motors actually add a bunch of torque to the low end and improve mileage. In terms of durability it's not any much worse than a gasoline motor. Still needs maintenance for the electric motor and battery replacement eventually.

The hybrid motor isn't just for MPGs or power, it also is the main controling feature for the torque vectoring. I think its pretty neat idea. I do wonder if it will hurt the ability to be a driver's car.

I don't think super cars are becoming compounds and actually a bad factor but when it comes to needs it just relies upon. With the technological innovation these days i could see supercars changing the landscape of to all compounds basically because its more natural technological innovation and the quantity of hp that an engine unit could create now that's really crazy.

What its really doing is widening the market for these cars. Before besides the funds one needed to be an actual driver to handle some of these beasts. Torque vectoring and other technological advancements have made these vehicles much more user friendly.
