Gushing over hp/L is nonsensical to begin with. Gushing over hp/L with forced induction is worse. Outright power is infinitely more important. And it is a powerful engine, no two ways about that.



Anyway ... the listed numbers are plausible to me. They're what most people would guess, give or take 5%. But I'm not convinced that its legitimate. Yes, there is the petrol/patrol mistake (also, why would it even be petrol instead of gasoline?). There is also the fact that its listed as 720 hp, when the units described under power are kW. Torque is given in ft-lbs and Nm, why not power? And another typo has trailor instead of trailer. One of those mistakes should raise an eyebrow. But 3 together? I don't see that occurring on an official internal form.
