What is the future? Electric. Most likely powered by a Hydrogen sponge tank and a Ballard energy membrane. None of this Lithium battery (old technology: yawn) nonsense...

Common Mazda lead a little!
Zoom Zoom is not "Rotary Engine" ONLY.

Try making a car that has four electric motors, one in each wheel. That would be positively Bad@SS!

Look at the Tesla Roadster, they are using OLD technology, and a single electric motor. They are leading the way with mediocre advancements in thinking.
How long are we going to suffer under the direction of Hybrid tries of success?
I think you'd be talking about Mitsu with regards to an electric motor, one in each wheel. They've been experimenting with that now for several years. The problem is the unsprung weight more than anything.
