Connected by a belt to the diesel engine’s crankshaft, under acceleration the MHSG provides up to 10kW of electric power assistance to the powertrain in motor mode, reducing engine load and emissions. If the battery has sufficient charge, the combustion engine turns off automatically during in-gear deceleration and braking.

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.
