Because the Twizy Renault Sport F1 isn’t nearly as fast as a single-seater race car, the kinetic energy produced under deceleration is insufficient to charge the KERS’ battery. Up to 4kW can be siphoned off in this way to charge the battery while on the move. The Twizy Renault Sport F1 powertrain. Click to enlarge.
