The addition of Hybrid units doesn't appear to have troubled the teams that much. You get the feeling the main combustion power unit will remain completely fundamental from a competitive point of view, with the hybrid a bolt-on addition that is equal to all, for better, for worse.

“So we believe in the learning process, and it’s why we did this prototype – and it really was a prototype – in this moment. To chase the final performance with a car that is far away from the one that will be in Monte Carlo, which we will start to test in 10 days, would have been good but also a bit of a waste of time.

It might be sufficent to pander to the current BEV craze and wanna-be environmentalist but doesn't it also remove some of the spectacle of seeing a rally car on liaisons? Most people that don't know the sport are amazed when they see such a car and realize it is road legal and has to travel on normal roads.

It can travel only 20km on battery power alone so spectators will hear ICE roaring on liasions as well.
I must say at the last vids (Puma and i20) I like these new cars and maybe even more than 2017 gen WRC's. No centre diffs, heavier car, reduced suspension travel etc will make it more fun to the eye.
