OK so now I read the product guide and understand. A ring controls all the blades (linked together) and the electric motor is not too close to the hot parts-it's mounted on the cool part of the turbo (air-side not exhaust side.). And no wastegate, but air blow off valve. Interesting.
This is a worldwide premiere of this technique in a fuel operated car. No wonder it is "interesting".

You should also wonder how a small manufacturer like Porsche was actually able to put this technology on the market before any other of the big players.
