to eliminate turbo lag—in support of aggressive engine downsizing. The electric supercharger operates independently of engine speed, making it suitable to maintaining vehicle transient performance and driveability. Aeristech also says that its technology is well-suited for hybrid, extended-range electric and biofueled vehicles.
