"The incredibly small engine weighs only 40 kilograms (88 pounds) but produces an astonishing 400 horsepower. The base engine is only 500 mm tall x 400 mm long x 200 mm wide (19.68" x 15.74" x 7.78")."

Nissan's new little 400hp 3-cylinder
This is the engine Nissan designed for their new ZEOD RC Le Mans race car. Not much info on it, but very impressive to say the least. Would love to see this thing go into production.

revolutionize standards of performance and efficiency.

At 88lbs I'll put one under the hood and in the trunk. Twin engine awd is the new hotness.

"The new engine actually has a better power-to-weight ratio than the new engines to be used in the FIA Formula 1 World Championship this year."

That's impressive! Imagine a 6 cyl version....wow!
