I think a superhybrid would be awesome- 4 wheel drive supercar with 300bhp electric motor driving the front wheels and a similar power petrol motor- ie. an Evo/Impreza engine in the back... would it be possible?

Great...except the fact that it will never sound like a sportscar. And a sportscar with no symphony under the hood is like a beautiful women wearing a spacesuit...

The "electric premium segment" cars really aren't capturing my imagination. I agree with Pole_McCoy; electric sports cars will never have the appeal of their petrol-powered competitors. Sports cars are about being loud and bothersome; if these cars are inherently limited (read: silent) imitations of sports cars, why bother? Tesla, Fisker, and Venturi are being stupidly conservative in their attempts to pioneer a new (albeit old) breed of automobile. I am a big fan of electric-powered cars, but even I am not naive enough to believe they'll be able to compete in petrol-dominated markets! That's foolishness. How about some innovation?
