So we have a clutch that connects to a huge flywheel. The flywheel is downsized to give a continuum between shift of gears, else unlike a ICE engine, when you take your leg off the pedal, the motor goes zero torque when you are re-engaging gears. The electricity generated will be used for charging the swappable battery packs.
