Whatever happened to Garrett's patent on the same thing?
What I see that's different is the presence of the clutches.
Look at high load condition. The motor acts as an alternator to charge the battery and prevent over-speed. Now what happens when said German Bahn Burner has been running flat out for a while, the battery is fully charged, and the car has minimal electric load? How do you prevent over-speed now, without a wastegate?
