Memminger............This time they’ve taken things a bit further, re-imagining a Super Beetle as a mid-engined roadster, and it’s pretty fantastic.

GM had some electric drivetrain and advanced aerodynamic expertise from their EV-1 electric car project, and they put all of that to use — and much more — in making the Precept. The Precept was a hybrid, but not exactly in the same manner like the fairly common combustion engine/electric hybrids we have today: the Precept was what’s known as a parallel hybrid where, unlike a Prius or something, there’s actually two (actually, sort of two-and-a-half) totally separate and distinct drivetrains, one diesel, one electric, in the car.
