Looks like Super-Godzilla is in the works!

Looks like Nissan is going to be the first company to introduce hybrid assisted power into a street production car for the masses.

BMW needs to jump on the bandwagon I say.

This comes to mind.

I used to think that all this green crap and hybrid tech would be the end of performance cars. especially after BMW went from the S85 to the S63TU.

BUT, then Porsche built the 918. It gives hope. Electric to provide tons of torque from a few hundred RPM, and gas to do the rest.

Why would they work with Williams when their brothers Renault are in F1. Get their MGU H and MGU K.

Williams has a department dedicated to providing hybrid system engineering services and are regarded as one of the leaders in this space.

Williams and Renault worked together until this year so it wouldn't surprise me if Renault F1 directed Nissan to Williams4.
