Certainly a nice technology, but I think it is 10 years late. This kind of modernized eletrical design of combustion engined cars which enables mild-hybrids should have been standard 5 years ago. Going forward I cannot see a large future for combustion-engined cars at all - for a few few years, plugin hybrids migth be popular for those, who need a lot of range. But pure electric cars are now coming to the market in numbers. I don't think as stated in the article, that in 2025 only 5% of the vehicles sold will be electric, I would assume that number rather for 2020.
