2025/2026 Hybrid Powerunit speculation

The tone isn't different. How loud, i.e. audible it is - to me - sounds different. You're welcome to your opinion and i'm welcome to mine.

And you're judging that based on low quality recordings? That's very much impossible.

We can keep going back and forward, but as i'm not here to convince you, i'll simply respect we are at a respectable difference.

The sound of these engines is being overrated. Presumably because everyone's expectations were so low, since it is 50% Formula E after all.

If the MGU-H wasn't made illegal , everyone would be running them. Because the system weighs 8kg and allows the battery to be smaller. The lack of MGU-H also makes the car less efficient.

So there's a little something for nobody. The environmentalist fans get a less efficient car. And the purist racers get something heavier.

But the battery wasn't a lot smaller, if at all. 4kg difference for ES enclosure, though they may not be directly comparable, due to what was counted in the weight.

And even if it was, it would be because the output power was lower.
