For '15, I'd have to say that it's almost certain that it'll be part of a hybrid system, be it with a more powerful flywheel or a flywheel supplemented by a smaller battery or supercap system. Audi have already tested a 4MJ and a 6MJ system in private testing, possibly also at the Michelin tire test in Estoril.

I was always cynical about the explanation Audi gave at the time.
