LE MANS, France —  The win was not at Le Mans, and it was 15 years ago at the Tokachi 24-Hour Race where a Toyota Supra GT that had been modified to used four-wheel energy regeneration and drive system among which the components included  10 kW in-wheel motors in the front wheels in addition to one 150 kW rear-axle mounted electric motor.

Somewhat like today’s Toyota TS030 Hybrid it also used a quick-charging supercapacitor system to provide energy storage for the vehicle.

However, there is not mention of the level of competition in the race, the number of cars, nor the classes that it was racing against. For a photo of the car go to the link.
