SR(L) 4026 Documents floating around on twitter (would love the rest). 4026 is the Chieftain replacement program that would be fulfilled by CR2. Highlights are only 350KE/650CE for the front hull, a desire for 300KE on the turret roof (??), and the various proposed levels of CR1 upgrade (assuming this is prior to the culling of the CR1 fleet).
 
CR1 400 seems like they replace the turret with a CR2 turret
CR1 300, 200, 100 seems like varying levels of upgraded CR1 turret and CR1 MIN seems like basic upgrades to the existing turret only (CR2 gun control equipment seemingly optional and no other specific upgrades listed)
 
Penetration figures are seemingly at 60 degrees, point blank.

That's the way I always understood it.
 
 
I think so. It is a rudimentary way of having an hunter-killer capability which needs a commander input (preferably from a stabilized sight) that can override the gunner commands and put the gun directly on target without the commander having to hand-over the target to the gunner manually (which takes precious time).
 
The exact definition of an hunter-killer capability depends on who you ask but generally the goal is to shorten the time between target acquisition (commander) and firing on it (gunner or in an emergency directly the commander). More modern system allow the commander to queue targets in the FCS and the gunner can just switch from one to the next with acquisition done (mostly) automatically.
 
It is a capability that most 1st and 2nd (and even some 3rd) gen MBT lacked (The Abrams only acquired it with the A2 version in the 90s for example).
 
The system on the AMX-32/40 allow for shorter firing sequences (less than 10s as stated in the video) and "some kind" of gun stabilization when the tank is moving (by continuously slaving the gun to the commander sight).
 
True it wasn't a full stabilization system since the tank still had to stop for the gunner to fire at longer ranges. But at "combat range" (<1000~1500 m) the commander could just fire on the move without any kind of elevation or (much) lead corrections since at that range an APFSD trajectory is mostly flat and will reach the target in less than 1s (minimal lead corrections required). It allowed the tank to react much faster in case of a close range encounter (assuming that it was the commander who spotted the target).
 
 
Well remember that no tank had a full "fire on the move" capability until the 90s anyway. Mostly gun stabilization was a way to allow for a quicker firing sequence after coming to a full stop or was mostly limited to firing only in the frontal arc at a much reduced speed (see below at around 0:50) :

Apparently, next thing would be geometric internal components and crew, that you can place yourself.
It won't change the way the vehicles handles but it will add more realistic constraints to the design instead of just having enough gross volume inside the hull or the turret :

   The collection of the Military Historical Museum of Artillery, Engineering and Signal Corps has a number of models of rare and prototype military equipment that are completely unknown to researchers of domestic weapons.
 
Soviet ATGM carriers projects from mid-late 1960s that were unknown to public, from storage of Museum of Artillery and Engineering in St.Petersburg.
 
First is 6KIN-100 on Shilka chassis. Grom cannon, rear turret section was supposedly liftable ATGM launcher. The docs with that model are dated 1968. 

 
KIN-1021 model. Also based on Shilka, armed with few different weapons. No docs, hard to say what missile where exactly, could have been AA or ATGMs. Taking into account aiming system (Maybe?) visible i would say those were not AA missile, most likely ATGMs.

 
 
PKN-21 ATGM carrier for Falanga missiles. Vehicle uses chassis from Krug AA system. Dated 1968. Armed with Grom and co-axial MG on top of ATGMs.

 
 
PR-1041. Chassis looks close-ish to Gvozdika SPG chassis. ATGM carrier, dated 1968, was in the works in 1966 or 1967.

Given that it was a vehicle from the 50's I sincerely doubt that it was electrically driven. An electrical drive will be smoother and have more torque than an hydraulic one, but it won't be inherently faster.
 
The FL-10 turret (long 75 mm) was hydraulic so I see no reason for the similar FL-11 to be any different.
 
 
On that topic I won't be categorical, but I very strongly doubt it. The hunter-killer concept came much later around the 80s to 90s (Leopard 2, M1A2, AMX-40) and even later for Soviet/Russian designs. Keep in mind that the original concept behind the EBR dates back to 1938-1939 (The prototype wasn't using the FL-11 turret, but it already was an oscillating one) and was updated and put in production in 1951.

As for photos of the interior, there are some of the 90 mm conversion of the FL-11 here, but the turret is in a very bad shape :
