#281067 BMW has gotten the patent on electric turbos... for the next M3(some sources say it'll have 3 turbos, one of which is electric). It supposedly will also come with the alternator strapped to the bottom of it.

#281070 great idea and I always had this concept in my head but damn germans! haha

its genius though if you think about it - start the turbine up in lower rpms and then the motor stops when the turbine catches up.
