Are there any road cars using exhaust heat for hybrid systems? That could be a very interesting technology cross-over for manufacturers as well...

A quick note in this thread ( off topic but... i'm always doing it
)... but i believe draft 4 foresees the possibility of all type of energy recuperation except hydraulic methods, and except on curves when using brakes(the driver help bs)... motoring back excludes also hydraulic (THE BEST POSSIBLE OUT THERE) and "Stirling" kind of motors... better! motoring back MUST always be by ELECTRIC means(when i would buy an hybrid it will be hydraulic(among other) for sure)
