Question
Is it legal to use electric motors to power the front wheels in a 4WD configuration if the electricity is generated by an alternator?
Rule B.2.5 states that "hybrid-electric drivetrain systems are explicitly prohibited," but it doesn't provide a definition of a hybrid-electric drivetrain. Later, rule B.2.6.3 states that specifically "batteries or other electric storage devices for vehicle propulsion are explicitly prohibited." So, would it be acceptable to use electric motors to power the front wheels provided that we are not storing energy in batteries/capacitors?
