Does that make it a supercharger since it's not exhaust driven?

If that matters so much to you, sure.

It was a question really. Matters so much to me? I think you read to deep.

Maybe it is still primarily exhaust driven, but with electric “assist” at lower shaft speeds?

I read about it a little afterwards, it's an electric compressor that spins up to like 70000 rpm that deals only with the low end. It's inline between the turbo and the intake somewhere I forget if it's before or after the intercooler.
