Visteon Electric Supercharger
Visteon UK developed an electric motor driven centrifugal supercharger system for European cars. This unit can boost the Renesis' low end torque.

I like that idea. It doesn't require the complicated plumbing work to the exhaust like a turbo and it doesn't waste HP like spinning up a traditional supercharger.

This system works at low rpm (up to ~4000rpm). It is bypassed at high rpm. It does not increase top end power.
Since people drive at low rpms most of the time, the extra low end torque is useful.
